所以这是十一月,那种忙碌的一个月的:在4thwe had the mid-term elections—the Republicans came away pretty happy, the Democrats not so much. And on the 15ththe second open enrollment period began for ObamaCare.
Among the happy Republicans was Mitch McConnell. Not only did he win his reelection race, he is also expected to be confirmed as the new majority leader in the Senate, a position he has reportedly coveted his entire political life.
11月5日,在选举后的第二天,麦康奈尔和众议院博纳议长发表在一个专栏文章Wall Street Journalin which the two congressional leaders renewed “our commitment to repeal ObamaCare, which is hurting the job market along with Americans’ health care.” Elaborating somewhat on that point, they wrote that “[h]ealth costs . . . continue to rise under a hopelessly flawed law that Americans have never supported.”
