Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 14, 2013
America is over 6 weeks into the ObamaCare rollout, and things are just a mess. Folks are still having problems signing up. But even more painful are the letters people are receiving, canceling their health insurance plans. Families and individuals are being forced into different and, oftentimes, more expensive plans. Recently, I asked folks to let me know how their premiums were being affected. One person contacted me that their premiums went up $200 a month. Another family contacted me that their policy was canceled, and their premium is going up $740 per month. The President promised, from the beginning, if you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan, period. But that has turned out not to be the case, and he knew it all along. ObamaCare has many flaws, but forcing people off their plans when they were promised they could keep them is really starting to hit home now. That is why I strongly support H.R. 3350, the Keep Your Health Plan Act. The legislation would allow health care plans on the individual market to remain available so people could have the option to keep their current health insurance if they want to. I still believe the best path forward is to get rid of ObamaCare, but for now, we should support this bill to help hardworking Americans keep their health insurance. ____________________
