House Tea Party leader signs up for ObamaCare

One of ObamaCare’s staunchest foes in Congress acknowledged that he has purchased insurance at HealthCare.gov.

“For the record, I am on ObamaCare. Yee-hah!” Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.) said during a town-hall meeting last month.

Another firebrand conservative, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), admitted last week that he was planning to enroll in insurance through ObamaCare.

Cruz had previously been covered by his wife’s Goldman Sachs healthcare plan, though she lost her coverage after deciding to take a leave for absence for his newly announced presidential campaign.

Both Huelskamp and Cruz have voted more than 50 times to repeal the president’s healthcare law.

Huelskamp had previously tried to enroll himself and his family in insurance through the insurance exchange during the website meltdown in December 2013 but said he was rejected.

“Now, like millions of my fellow Americans, my family and I have been removed from a plan we liked and then been rejected by ObamaCare,” he said then.
