“I thank the gentleman for yielding. Health care is a personal issue, and many Kansans are worried about submitting their sensitive and private information into a system that can't protect them against the devastating consequences of security breaches and fraud. Experts have repeatedly raised red flags about the security of the information people are submitting to the ObamaCare exchanges, and a former Social Security Administrator even described the Web site as a hacker's dream. Important questions about the Web site security remain unanswered, and Americans, especially those who have lost their plans due to the President's health care law, deserve some piece of mind that their information is safe from cyber thieves. I urge my colleagues to support this bill that requires HHS to notify Americans within 2 business days if their personal information has been compromised. Much more is required of private sector companies whose products are not mandated by law. The least the administration can do is notify Americans if their information has been stolen or unlawfully accessed through the ObamaCare exchange.”
