Phil Roe, M.D. (R-TN) released the following statement on the Obama administration\u2019s delay in online enrollment for small businesses that want to purchase health coverage through the federally-run exchanges:\r\n\u201cThis announcement, made one day before Thanksgiving, is just further proof that Obamacare is a disaster,\u201d said Roe. \u201cThe administration broke another promise when they said that small businesses would be able to purchase insurance coverage through the website \u2018sometime in November.\u2019\u201d\r\n\u201cWhen President Obama talked about purchasing insurance through Healthcare.gov, he said it would be similar to purchasing a television online,\u201d Roe continued. \u201cThis is clearly not the case. You can\u2019t force someone to purchase a product without giving them a way to do it. We\u2019ve known for a while that Obamacare was unaffordable, but now it\u2019s proving to be unattainable. This is unacceptable and I believe it\u2019s unfair to leave the American people on the hook for the administration\u2019s failure to deliver what they\u2019ve promised. Today\u2019s announcement is further proof that we need to provide fairness for all Americans and delay this law altogether.\u201d", 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://roe.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=363052"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5225119423121214, "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"}
