John Shimkus said "I want to read a text I got from a friend and colleague from my State of Illinois: John, I have firsthand experience that the premium for an individual health policy is almost double the price now on the exchanges in Illinois. This person works for a health broker and her premium is going from $600 to $1,100 per month with Blue Cross. This is not good. I pray that you all band together, John, and stay the course, please. She is not the only one, John. All my clients' new premiums are going higher, as well. If they want it at the same price, they have to pick a much larger deductible. The President is not telling the truth. I am praying for you, John, to hold the line. ___________________
