REASONS TO GET RID OF OBAMACARE
(Mr. HUELSKAMP asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute.)
Mr. HUELSKAMP. Mr. Speaker, at 12:01 a.m. this past Tuesday morning,
I attempted to sign up for ObamaCare.
It's now been 60 hours, and I have still not been able to
successfully navigate the online marketplace. Error message after error
message, failed security standards, and 60 hours on Web site hold for
just this one Kansan, and it is clear ObamaCare is failing--and
embarrassingly so--particularly for the former Kansas Governor who is
now in charge of ObamaCare but, of course, refuses to live under it
herself.
My office recently spoke with one of the insurers in Kansas who told
us that not one of the 365,000 uninsured Kansans successfully signed up
for insurance under the ObamaCare exchanges the first day.
Although Senator Harry Reid and all the Senate Democrats, Kathleen
Sebelius, and the President himself refuse to live under ObamaCare, the
rest of America doesn't have that privilege.
This is yet another example of why we need to get rid of ObamaCare.
It's unpopular, unaffordable, and unworkable.
