发帖数: 29846 | 1 ObamaCare Architect Jonathan Gruber Called to Testify Before Congress
For a guy who’s run his mouth so much, we expect him to take the Fifth.
Last night, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman
Darrell Issa, R-Calif., sent letters calling on Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services Administrator Marilyn Tavenner and ObamaCare architect
Jonathan Gruber to testify on Tuesday, December 9th before the House
Oversight and Government Reform Committee on repeated transparency failures
and outright deceptions surrounding ObamaCare.
“From the outset, the health law has been the poster child for this
Administration’s broken transparency promises,” Chairman Issa said in a
statement. “Americans were told if they liked their plans and doctors, they
could keep them. They were told the individual mandate wasn’t a tax. None
of these were true. Jonathan Gruber, one of ObamaCare’s chief architects,
publicly lauded the ‘lack of transparency’ that was necessary to pass the
law and credited ‘the stupidity of the American voter’ that allowed the
Administration to mislead the public. CMS Administrator Marilyn Tavenner
testified before our Committee that the Administration met its goals by
enrolling 7.3 million individuals, however we now know that wasn’t the case
. The numbers provided by CMS were deceptive and obscured the number of
Americans running from exchange plans. The American people deserve honesty,
transparency and respect from those who forced the federal government into
their healthcare. I expect Mr. Gruber and Administrator Tavenner to testify
publicly next month about the arrogance and deceptions surrounding the
passage and implementation of ObamaCare.”
Good luck with that. | T*********s
