The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ deadline for states to partner with the federal government on health insurance exchanges is Friday, February 15. For the 26 states that remain free of Obamacare’s expensive and intrusive grip, the Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom (www.cchfreedom.org) is calling on them to remain firm in their denial of federal, state, or partnership exchanges, all of which lead to federal control of healthcare, intrusiveness into private data for citizens, and costly penalties for a wide range of employers.

Health insurance agents will be only one of many groups allowed to become navigators.
