Health Care Reform - Obamacare

CCHF Launches National “Refuse to Enroll” Campaign

ST. PAUL, Minn.— As Obamacare prepares to officially kick off on October 1, 2013, Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom (CCHF, www.cchfreedom.org) launches the national  “Refuse to Enroll” campaign with a flier detailing steps Americans can take to stop its implementation.

Obama’s Dangerous Delay

Obama’s delay is dangerous to freedom. On July 2, at 6:00 p.m. just before the Independence Day holiday, the administration quietly stated in a blog post (of all things!) that the Obamacare employer mandate would be delayed by one year, until January 1, 2015. The U.S. Treasury put out a separate blog post. There was no press release. This understated process was meant to make the delay look like “no big deal.” But it is.

Health Care Surveillance: CCHF States That HIPAA is a Grand Deception

Twila Brase, president and co-founder of Citizens’ Council for Health Freedom, wants Americans to know what she believes is another government intrusion into their private health data. And she will share this information through a week-long series of radio programs that will air on more than 300 radio stations across the country from July 1-5.

The Obamacare Surveillance System

There is an Obamacare surveillance system. Surveillance is national news today...except in health care. That needs to change. The National Security Administration (NSA) is not the only agency spying on citizens without their consent or knowledge. And the problem is going to get worse under the federal reform law, empowering the IRS in ways we've never seen before.
