Obamacare

Floor Speech

Date: Nov. 14, 2013
Location: Washington, DC

Mr. LONG. Mr. Speaker, a constituent emailed my office this morning, and then she followed up with a call. She is fed up with ObamaCare.

She is battling cancer, which requires travel to a neighboring State. She told me her health insurance had been canceled due to the President's health care law. She was able to find a new plan, but will no longer be able to see her cancer doctor in Little Rock. She said:

My doctor and I are very concerned about the future treatment if I have to change docs. How many other Americans can no longer go to the treatment centers they need for lifesaving care? This is absurd. I have decided to continue my lifesaving treatments in Little Rock but will likely go bankrupt in the process. Just a little more stress the Obama plan has placed on thousands of Americans undergoing lifesaving treatment. I am angry not only for myself, but for everyone else who is going through this.

Mr. Speaker, we need to honor the promise President Obama made to the millions of Americans who like their plans but are now receiving cancelation notices.
