For Don: Pass the Keep Your Health Plan Act

Floor Speech

Date: Nov. 12, 2013
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Health Insurance

Mr. Speaker, Don, one of my constituents from Lexington, wrote me a short email this week that everyone should hear. Don writes:

My individual health plan cancels January 1. What is being offered by healthcare.gov is triple the cost. I am unemployed and desperately trying to keep health care until I reach 65 late next year. The President said, ``If you like your health care plan, keep it.'' Please do whatever you can to make that a reality and not another empty statement.

We hear Don loud and clear, Mr. Speaker. ObamaCare isn't living up to the President's promise.

But this week we can change that. The House will vote Friday to give the President a real opportunity to keep his word to the American people through the Keep Your Health Plan Act of 2013.

For Don and for millions like him, who have been shocked to find the health plans they like will soon be illegal, supporting its passage is the least the President can do.
