A few weeks ago UPS sent a letter to 15,000 employees and it said: We are terminating spousal health insurance because of ObamaCare. Their husbands and wives were told: Sorry, your health insurance is gone. Remember, the promise was: If you like your health insurance, you can keep it. For those 15,000 UPS employees--for their husbands and wives--that promise has been disproved by reality. This body would step up and stop ObamaCare if we did just one thing: if we listened to our constituents. So together that is what we have to do: Make DC listen. A
A recent letter from UPS informed 15,000 employees that their spousal health insurance would be terminated due to the implications of ObamaCare. This change has left many spouses without health coverage, contradicting President Obama's promise that individuals could keep their existing health insurance plans if they liked them. The situation highlights the reality faced by those affected, demonstrating a significant gap between political promises and the experience of everyday Americans.
Senator Ted Cruz emphasized that the solution to the issue with ObamaCare lies in listening to constituents and taking action to address their concerns. He believes that if lawmakers truly engaged with the voices of the people they represent, changes could be enacted to rectify the problems caused by the healthcare policy. Cruz's remarks serve as a call to action for both the public and policymakers to work together to ensure that the needs of citizens are met in Washington, D.C.
