Today, the health insurance marketplace officially opened. Congresswoman Gwen Moore (WI-4) released this statement:
"Today marks a historic milestone for Wisconsin and the American people. Despite the futile resistance from my colleagues on the other side of the aisle, the Affordable Care Act's health insurance marketplace opened as planned and the 2014 enrollment period will continue until March 31st. Coverage will begin as early as January 1st, 2014.
"America will remember this moment not only as the day the GOP shut down our government, but as the day Democrats expanded health care access to millions. I urge everyone in my district to take full advantage of the benefits offered by our landmark health care reform law. Enroll for coverage through the health insurance marketplace today."
