Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, the panic and frustration felt by millions of American families is real. They all heard the promise: If you like the health care you have, you can keep it. And they believed it. But families in my district are experiencing something different: canceled plans, premium hikes, and uncertainty. Mark from Advance, North Carolina, tells me: Both my wife and I are over 60, retired, and self-insured. We received letters notifying us that our health insurance policies are being canceled. The replacement policies cost more than twice as much. If we accept the policies, we will be paying $798.20 per month for insurance. Same goes for John from Advance. He writes: My wife has had her premiums increase from $200 to $600. We have had this plan for 6 years and thought we could keep our insurance. Mark and John were given a promise by President Obama. Telling them to wait 1 year before the promise is broken for good isn't an honest solution. ____________________”
