Enzi: What Does Obama Say to Victims of His Broken Promise?

‘What is the administration doing to help the millions of people that will suffer as a result of the president’s broken promise?’

ENZI: "My question is, What is the administration doing to help the millions of people that will suffer as a result of the president's broken promise? What can I tell my constituents who have had their insurance coverage canceled and are facing thousand dollars in insurance costs? And incidentally, Wyoming's costs are higher than any other in the nation and only have two providers. There has not been an increase in the number of providers."
SEBELIUS: "I think the president's promise was in the long the day it was written, and that is the grandfather clause that we wrote as a policy, which basically said that plans that were in effect in March of 2010, that did not change to the detriment of the consumer, even though the insurance company could raise premiums, eliminate benefits or take away items that the consumer liked -- that those are in effect, and they can stay in effect. And millions of Americans in the individual market are enjoying those plans today and will enjoy them into the future."
