Fake President Is Sabotaging Obamacare

Another email to my elected officials in D.C.

Dear Sen. Brown

Sen. Portman

Rep. Tiberi

The deadline for health insurance companies to file 2018 rates for the ACA exchanges has been extended to September 5^th, but cost-sharing reduction payments (CSR’s) are still being held hostage month to month.  No guarantee of continuing CSR payments will mean unacceptable, unnecessary and utterly avoidable increases in rates and premiums, and may cause insurance companies to pull out of the ACA exchanges.

If Congressional Republicans allow the Pouting Prez to wantonly sabotage the ACA, the American public will rightly blame the entire Republican Party, not just our fake president, for the resulting market chaos.  Republicans will pay a heavy political price for letting this occur.

You have legislative opportunities coming up – the debt ceiling increase, the budget resolution, spending bills, etc. – to permanently fund the CSR’s and take the option of deliberate destruction away from our unhinged, untrustworthy chief executive.

Do it!  I urge you to quickly legislate permanent funding of the CSR’s as an ongoing part of the ACA in order to help stabilize the individual health insurance market.
