Eleven GOP state attorneys general charge that the Obama administration
is breaking the law by sidestepping Congress to change the healthcare
law, The Hill reports.
In particular, the Republican attorneys general claim the president’s
executive action that allows health insurance companies to keep offering
insurance plans that have been canceled for not meeting Obamacare rules
is "flatly illegal under federal constitutional and statutory law."
"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 attorneys general wrote in a
letter to Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. "The
illegal actions by this administration must stop."
HHS did not respond to a request for comment.
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey wrote the letter, which
was co-signed by his peers in Alabama, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas,
Louisiana, Michigan, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, and Virginia.
