ACA HEALTH CARE - Sebelius to Congress

"Kathleen Sebelius to Congress:  Delay of health care law 'not an option'" PBS Newshour 11/6/2013

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  Lawmakers confronted Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius with skepticism over fixes yet to be made on HealthCare.gov and concerns over cancelled policies.  However, Sebelius maintained her stance to not delay the heath care law.  Congressional correspondent Kwame Holman reports.

JUDY WOODRUFF (Newshour):  The president and his administration continued to defend and explain their approach to the health care law and its troubled website today.

President Obama met at the White House this afternoon with 16 senators on that subject, a dozen of them Democrats, and most facing competitive reelection contests in 2014.

Earlier, on Capitol Hill, the Cabinet secretary overseeing the new law ran into tough questions again.

NewsHour congressional correspondent Kwame Holman reports.
