Hogan Applauds Federal Investigation Into Maryland Health Exchange Mismanagement

Annapolis, MD - Gubernatorial candidate Larry Hogan today welcomed the federal Department of Health and Human Services' investigation into Maryland's failed Health Benefit Exchange. 

According to Hogan, "I applaud the federal investigation into the O'Malley-Brown Administration's costly and failed management of our state's failed health care exchange. Marylanders deserve a thorough review of why Lt. Governor Anthony Brown, the O'Malley Administration's point-man on health insurance reform, is spending hundreds of millions of our hard-earned tax dollars on a broken website instead of increasing access to affordable health insurance," Hogan said. 

The O'Malley-Brown Administration had set a goal of registering an additional 150,000 Marylanders in private health insurance plans by the end of March. As problems with the state's online exchange mounted and registrations lagged, the Administration slashed their goal to 75,000. "Despite moving their goal post up to the fifty yard line, with twenty days to go before Marylanders are fined for not having health insurance, fewer than 39,000 have signed up through the exchange," said Hogan.

We've all heard a lot about federal investigations of this and federal investigations of that but, until these investigations result in criminal charges against the crooks it's all just costly make believe.

Its about time they investigate this. 1:49 must be brainwashed liberal who wouldn't want to investigwte anything, because it may cost more money, seriously? We wouodn't want to offend any Crooks, right? But Tax-Payers, oh heck, why not? Here's the solution - just tell Moochelle NO MORE VACATIONS and Barry NO MORE GOLF until all investigations are completed. I bet THIINGS WOULD START MOVING VERY QUICKLY.
