State attorneys general claim ObamaCare changes are illegal

Eleven state attorneys general are
slamming the Obama administration for making repeated changes to ObamaCare without consulting
congressional lawmakers, which they say is illegal.
In a Thursday letter to Health and Human Services Secretary
Kathleen Sebelius, the group specifically criticized the administration’s
decision to allow insurance companies to sell policies that would otherwise be
out of compliance with the Affordable Care Act for another year.
The group says the insurance “fix”
flies in the face of both federal and state law because it “compounds illegal
executive action.”
“We support allowing citizens to
keep their health insurance coverage, but the only way to fix this
problem-ridden law is to enact changes lawfully; through congressional action,”
the letter states.
The attorneys general also express
concern over the security of the ObamaCare enrollment exchanges, and accuse the
administration of ignoring the potential vulnerability of consumer information.
“As attorneys general, we take the
privacy of our states' consumers very seriously and are deeply concerned about
the Administration's decision not to propose and implement rigorous privacy
standards for outreach personnel,” the letter states.
The attorneys general state they
would appreciate the HHS’s “prompt
attention to these critical concerns.”
The letter was written by West
Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey and signed by his counterparts in Alabama, Georgia,
Idaho, Kansas,
Louisiana, Michigan,
Nebraska, Oklahoma,
Texas and Virginia.
