Congressman Chris Collins Condemns Rising Health Insurance Premiums Congressman Chris Collins (NY-27) today reacted to news of anticipated steep increases in the price of BlueCross BlueShield plans available to New Yorker’s through the New York State Insurance marketplace. “Not only has Obamacare been a failure for most of America, it is now failing the people of Western New York by making basic healthcare completely unaffordable and inaccessible,” said Congressman Collins. “I am absolutely appalled a BlueCross BlueShield plan in Western New York would increase by almost fifty percent in the marketplace.” BlueCross BlueShield pointed to the failed Obamacare policies that have cost insurance companies millions of dollars, driving up costs for Americans.

While President Obama promised that premiums under his plan would decrease during these last few years, a May 23, 2017 report from the Department of Hea |

The Secretary of VA should have the power to make sure only the most qual |

Yet, veterans are facing such obstacles. What an insult to people who put their lives on hold […] |
