More than 100,000 people in Pennsylvania and more than 2 million nationwide selected plans on HealthCare.gov in November, according to federal statistics released Wednesday.

Across the U.S., about 100,000 more people have signed up for coverage this month as compared with the same time last year.

Federal officials point out that about 71 percent of Pennsylvania enrollees could pick premiums for less than $75 per month. Across the country, about 8 in 10 people who enroll in coverage through HealthCare.gov will qualify for tax credits to make premiums more affordable, federal health officials said while announcing November enrollment.

but, but, but premium increases!!!!!


sigh

ACA, we hardly knew ye.

I don't think that they would have necessarily have hated the bailout as much if it didn't come from Obama.

It's so weird that the party that hated the black guy likes the orange one.

Looking at the list of congresspeople who publicly opposed Pelosi it's interesting that several of them are the more moderate,conservative Democrats (Moulton, Sinema, Schrader, Ryan) and some CBC members but people on twitter I follow who are disliking the results tend to be very, very liberal people. Thing is, the latter perhaps don't get that Pelosi is a pretty darn liberal person and fairly representative of the Democrats in the House so it's hard to mount a challenge from the left to take the leadership away from her. There's simply not enough of those to the left or right of her to unseat her. She's pretty much in the middle of the Democratic Party and its representation with her views, for better or worse.

Perhaps if Ellison didn't go for the stupid, powerless DNC we'd have had a closer result. He'd be the 'new face' so many are asking for and he'd had taken a bunch of liberal votes at the same time.

anti-transgender bill is being discussed in Texas
The alarm came after Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said passing a bill to require transgender people to use the restroom that corresponds with the gender on their birth certificates is a top priority for him this session, which begins Jan. 10.


gonna be a rumble:
Texas House Speaker Joe Straus doesn't think passing a transgender bathroom bill is a pressing issue state lawmakers need to address during the 2017 legislative session.
"This isn't the most urgent concern," Straus, R-San Antonio, said on Tuesday during an interview with Texas Tribune CEO Evan Smith. When asked whether it was a priority, he added: "It isn't. But that doesn't mean the House is going to feel differently than I do."

"We don't want to do anything that jeopardizes that," Straus said, referring to major events the state risks losing, including San Antonio hosting the NCAA Men's Final Four in 2018. "I know the lieutenant governor is very enthusiastic about this. Let him run with it. We'll see what the House wants to do."

Trump tweeted about how they will continue to make air conditioners at the factory/plant. They make furnaces. Man of the people.

Heidi Heitkamp statement on meeting with Trump. "Whatever job I do, I hope to work with the president-elect and all of my colleagues in Congress on both sides of the aisle to best support my state."

Usually get someone from the opposite party in the cabinet. Usually do not get to steal a Senate seat by doing so.
