White House threatens veto against GOP Obamacare bill

The Washington Examiners reports:

The White House issued a veto threat Wednesday against a Republican bill that would allow consumers to keep health insurance plans that don't meet Obamacare standards.

According to the White House, the GOP bill sponsored by Rep. Bill Cassidy, R-La., “would roll back the progress made because of the Affordable Care Act and would allow insurers to deploy practices such as charging businesses more when a worker has a pre existing condition or when it has more workers who are women than men.”

“The bill would allow insurers to go back to capping the amount of care that enrollees receive or to excluding coverage of proven preventive care,” the White House added.

President Obama was widely criticized for his broken promise that all consumers could keep their health plans under Obamacare if they preferred. In response to the outcry, the administration issued limited exemptions for those who wanted to stay on their canceled healthcare plans.

The Obama regime thinks it knows better than you on what's a good health plan.
