OBAMACARE ROLLOUT III
(Mr. WALBERG asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute.)
Mr. WALBERG. Mr. Speaker, over and over and over again, the President
told the American people: If you like your health plan, you can keep
it.
If that were true, why then is Kaiser Health News reporting that
``health plans are sending hundreds of thousands of cancelation letters
to people who buy their own coverage''? The Kaiser report goes on to
say that some consumers are now being forced to ``buy more costly
policies.''
If folks turn to the government for help--if they go to
healthcare.gov--they will be met with so many bugs and glitches as to
make signing up almost impossible.
Mr. Speaker, this is simply not fair. Nor is it fair that the
President wants to find people who can't sign up using his own faulty
Web site.
House Republicans want to promote fair solutions that create more
jobs for all Americans. That is how we are going to get our economy
growing.
