Hanabusa Votes Against House Measure Requiring Obamacare Updates

By /
The Hill has the story. Excerpt:

The House voted Thursday to require weekly updates from the Obama administration about the implementation and operation of ObamaCare and its website, HealthCare.gov.

Members passed the Exchange Information Disclosure Act in a 259-154 vote. And while many Democrats criticized the bill as another GOP attack on ObamaCare, it won the support of 33 Democrats in the final vote. …

Rep. Colleen Hanabusa and most other Democrats voted against the measure. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard is on Army National Guard duty and did not vote.
