California Dems Nix Obamacare 'Fix'
by Joel B. Pollak 22 Nov 2013
The state of California has rejected President Barack
Obama's proposed "fix" for individuals whose insurance policies are
being canceled this year as a result of the law.
Last week, the president proposed
that insurance companies allow those policies to continue, in an effort to
reduce the political damage after he broke his oft-repeated promise that people
could keep their plans.
However, California's regulators refused the change.
California's decision is critical--not only because it has already
signed up more customers for Obamacare
than the federal government as a whole, but also because it is the flagship for
the policy's success.
It would have been impossible, in
any case, for California to implement Obama's
"fix," because several insurance companies have withdrawn from the
state rather than participating in the restrictive "Covered
California" exchange.
