U.S. house committee on small business

On October 1, U.S. House Committee on Small Business Chairman Sam Graves (R-MO) released the following statement about the ongoing problems of the Small Business Health Options Program (SHOP), one year into Obamacare’s operations.

“From the time then-Speaker Pelosi proclaimed Obamacare should be passed ‘so you can find out what’s in it’ to today’s one year anniversary of this burdensome law’s botched implementation, the administration has widely over-promised and painfully under-delivered every step of the way,” said Rep. Graves. “The past year has been littered with problems, including rising costs, cancellation notices, and a faulty $2 billion website.” Likewise, he continued, Obamacare’s Small Business Health Options Program has fallen woefully short of any kind of acceptable standard.
