Jay Carney Berates Insurance Companies For Complying With Obamacare

Speaking to reporters Tuesday White House Press Secretary Jay Carney blamed loss of healthcare coverage for millions of Americans on insurance companies complying with the Affordable Care Act.

Millions of health insurance plans are no longer available because they do not meet Obamacare standards and regulations. Carney’s comments come less than 24 hours after information surfaced showing President Obama knew millions of Americans would be losing their health insurance plans under Obamacare despite promising, “If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan.
