Dem Rep: ObamaCare Doubled My Insurance Costs

Rep. Gene Green (D-TX) reported that his insurance and deductible have doubled since he signed up for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act during a hearing by the House Committee on Rules on Tuesday.

After Chairman Pete Sessions (R-TX) stated “I’m on ObamaCare … my plan is twice as expensive, and the deductible is twice as much,” Green responded, “That’s my experience also.”

In 2013, Green criticized Republican attempts to repeal ObamaCare, saying the ACA “will help not only the millions of uninsured but also everyone with health insurance because the ACA improves coverage.”
