House Resolution 3200 Would Establish Automatic Enrollment in Health Insurance Exchange

Health care is much on all our minds. Here's more cause for concern.

CNS News reports that the bill being considered in the House of Representatives would give the President authority to appoint a federal "Health Choices Commissioner" with "sweeping power to govern the health insurance plans offered in a so-called 'exchange' where millions of Americans would get their health insurance if the bill is enacted." Not only that, but CNS also reports "Further, the commissioner would have the authority to establish 'automatic enrollment' of individuals. . . ."

In my view none of these proposals are acceptable. We must let our Representatives in Washington know our views. We must speak out -- in e-mails, blogs, local meetings and in conversations with our family and friends. -- S. Lane
