Senate Minority leader John McKinney “disappointed” by Gov. Malloy’s decision to go full-speed-ahead on CT’s version of the ACA

State Senate Minority Leader John McKinney, R-Fairfield, on Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’s decision to go forward with Health Access CT, the insurance exchange:

“I am disappointed by Governor Malloy’s decision today.  Instead of acting on my call to bring the General Assembly into session to amend state law so that these policies could be continued, the Governor rejected my request and his insurance commissioner has told us to ‘forget about the numbers.’  But we can’t do that.  Unfortunately for Governor Malloy, these ‘numbers’ represent real people. Tens of thousands of people in Connecticut are going to lose their health insurance this year because of Obamacare and Governor Malloy’s decision.”
