Its been over 5 years since the Administration forced Obamacare unilaterally through a Democratic controlled Congress, and its hard working men and women who are now suffering the consequences.\r\nThe CBO working paper follows the October release of the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 2016 Marketplace Affordability Snapshot. That analysis showed an average cost increase of 7.5% in benchmark healthcare plans in the coming year.\r\nObamacare is decreasing our labor force while increasing the costs of healthcare. This year, the average deductible for an employer-provided plan rose nearly 9%. Next year, millions of Americans will see an increase in their premiums, according to the White Houses own data, Latta continued. The Presidents flawed healthcare law continues to be detrimental to the economy, as well as to familys budgets. I will continue working with my colleagues to repeal and dismantle this law.", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["http://latta.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=398113"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6580091323703527, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
