WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Roger Wicker, R-Miss., today said that reports of higher health insurance premiums and low Obamacare enrollment numbers highlight Americans’ overwhelming disapproval of the President’s health-care law. Open enrollment for Obamacare began on November 1.

“Obamacare is unworkable and unaffordable for American families,” Wicker said. “Faced with higher costs and fewer choices, millions are choosing to forgo enrollment despite looming and increasing tax penalties. In fact, the Administration is going to great lengths to lower expectations regarding the projected number of enrollees. More expensive insurance premiums, collapsing Obamacare co-ops, and fewer insured Americans are examples of a law that is not working.”
