In addition to problems with HealthCare.gov’s rollout, the Administration and Democrats in general a facing accusations that they lied to the public over whether or not citizens would have to change insurance plans. One of the Democrats’ main talking points of the healthcare legislation was that those who were satisfied with their insurance would not have to change it. However, many Americans have received notifications from their health insurance companies indicating that their coverage would be terminated since the plans do not meet the minimum requirements specified by the law. In response, Republicans are proposing a law allowing the public to keep their insurance. A couple Senate Democrats have supported the bill and others have proposed a different one like it. The President has apologized to those who lost their plans and said that his Administration is reviewing ways the Executive Branch can legally allow them to retain coverage.
