U.S. Senator Ben Sasse, who earlier this year authored a report on the lack of competition on Obamacare’s exchanges, issued the following statement regarding the Obama Administration’s confirmation today that Obamacare premiums will increase by an average of 25 percent next year. "We’ve reached this point because Obamacare is built on the lie that Washington’s bureaucrats are smart enough to plan health care for millions of Americans. At every turn—whether it’s CO-OPs collapsing, premiums skyrocketing, or big insurers bailing—the American people have paid the price. More spin won’t solve this—it’s time for the White House to admit that this law isn’t working."
