Across Kansas, folks are struggling from the effects of ObamaCare. This cancelation letter is from Greg and Linda in Osage City, who wrote to tell me their son was losing his health care plan. Linda spent hours each night for weeks trying to sign up for a new plan on the Web site. She tried the online chat. She tried calling the number, and no one could answer her questions. They were forced to add their son to Greg's more expensive employer plan, and now their son's health insurance bill is going up 50 percent each month. After years of knowing about these problems, today the President tried to make good on his promise: if you like your plan, you can keep it. But for Greg and Linda, it is likely too late. The deadline to switch to Greg's employer plan just passed. They had no good options. We must continue to work for hardworking American families who are paying the price for this unworkable law. ____________________
