Gallup: Despite Obamacare Mandate, 13.4% of Americans Don’t Have Health Insurance

CNS News reports:
Although the Affordable Care Act, popularly known as Obamacare, required that all Americans obtain health insurance by the beginning of this year or else pay a penalty, a new Gallup survey shows that 13.4% of Americans are still uninsured.

In Texas, according to Gallup, 24% of the people do not have health insurance.

In its telephone survey conducted Jan. 2-June 30, 2014, Gallup asked: “Do you have health insurance?”

While the percentage of people uninsured nationally declined from 17.3% in 2013 to 13.4% in the second quarter of 2014, reported Gallup, there are still many Americans who answered “no,” they do not have coverage.
This is "universal coverage" according to the Obama regime.
