The law has guaranteed that no American can be denied coverage or charged a higher premium for getting sick, and no woman can be charged more than a man for the same policy. In our Commonwealth, Kynect has been a model for the nation, enrolling more than 321,000 Kentuckians in affordable, quality coverage in the first six months alone. As we enter its fifth year, I hope we will work to implement and improve the law so that every American has guaranteed access to affordable care, businesses grow and thrive, and we continue to rein in the costs of health care. Hundreds of thousands of Kentuckians and millions of Americans from every corner of the country depend on it.
