On the recordMarch 25, 2014
I would like to share my experience with it, because as Members of Congress we were forced to go into ObamaCare. The only exchange we were allowed to go in was the one here in Washington, D.C. It is called a small business link. The only small business is Congress, the government. We are the ones put in. Just for the record, my own individual premium increased for the same number of people in our family that we would have to cover. Our premium was scheduled to increase times four. So we would have had to increase our premium by four times, and our deductible was quadrupled. That also went up four times. So there was no Affordable Care Act in our family. It is an extremely unaffordable health insurance act. I would be curious to know if the Supreme Court Justices would voluntarily put themselves in ObamaCare so they, too, could know the pleasure of what it is to pay four times more for the same health insurance than my family paid last year.
