As the ObamaCare debate continues, today’s Washington Times had a very interesting piece of information about Congress and healthcare. The article reports that an internal Senate email warns Senators not to sign up for ObamaCare immediately because the health exchanges have not been completely set up yet.

The article quotes the email:

“Members and staff are advised that they should delay enrolling in health insurance plans until we are able to offer further guidance as to how they should enroll in these insurance plans for 2014,” the Senate disbursing office said in an email to staffers Monday. “Premature enrollment could adversely impact eligibility for the employer premium contribution.”

What about the rest of us–we are all supposed to be participating by next Tuesday?

The article further reports:

During the 2009 health care debate Congress approved language insisting that lawmakers and staffers in their personal offices will lose their federal health plans and must shop for plans on the exchanges — though last month’s ruling by the Office of Personnel Management said taxpayers will still continue to pay 72 percent of the premiums.

Republicans said that’s a benefit most Americans won’t get.

Congress is not supposed to be a protected class–they should be forced to live under the same law that the rest of us are required to follow.

This is just another reason ObamaCare should be stopped in its tracks before it totally destroys healthcare in America.
