White House says report was wrong and people CAN register to vote when signing up for Obamacare
A White House official told Talking Points Memo Wednesday that, contrary to claims two left-leaning groups reported that were spotlighted by Mother Jones magazine, Americans will be able to register to vote when they apply for subsidized health insurance at the mandated exchanges under the Affordable Care Act. The federal exchanges will operate in 36 states.

From your link, she..
"The GOP has attacked the Motor Voter law and likewise the registration provision under the insurance exchanges. As Eichelberger reported, Republicans have called the health exchanges "Democrat Party front organizations." At a time when Republicans have ramped up their efforts to suppress the vote of low-income and minority Americans, the last thing they want is to have their efforts undercut when lots of such individuals show up to apply for subsidized insurance and simultaneously register to votemost likely for the party that put the insurance plan into place:"
Yes, Health and Voting are so Democratic! Get over it, republicon Fascists.
"But, wrote TPM's Dylan Scott, an Obama administration official said Tuesday afternoon that reports the voter registration requirement would not be enforced are "inaccurate."

Great link, she! Mahalo!

(53,661 posts)We should not be fooled, this is something worth fighting for despite all the mealy mouthed media messages and lies. We should make no mistake, the ACA changes more than many people think.
It will end the tryanny of extorting by insurers and employers. They are turning their health care over to the government, just like the EU does. It will lead to UHC, the GOP knows this.
One of their prime tools to maintain inequality, keeping people afraid and sickly, going bankrupt, their hearts and economic status broken, will be gone. Yes, that is how evil they are.
UHC has come to the poor, don't think the rest won't be far behind. For the 31 million new Medicaid patients, they will not pay a dime. These are the most needy among us, the ones who often ignored. PBO hasn't forgotten.
That is settled in social democracies. Are you a human being, do you need basic things? Will you be denied the essentials for lack of money you don't have now, but might if you were healthy? Is there a pound for dollar value on human life, like grain, or is there more to life?
Their entire emphasis is on creating inequality, by their laws against civil rights, ruining public education, sabotaging employment and denying the basics of health, food and housing, and dismantling civil society by any means.
We can't move forward, or be united with hearts set free with peace and justice in this country if we don't treat all people equally. That is what makes peace and progress. It's not flashy, and it's the quier kind of freedom some take for granted as their right, but it is everyon's right.
It's what allows a person to sleep at night knowing their basic needs will be met, so they can plan for higher things, instead of fighting each other for scraps like a pack of dogs without sense.
Thanks for explaining that other poison pill for the GOP in that every person who registers for the ACA can get registered to vote. The avalanche of people who value the social contract will overrun the regressives.
And they can't stop it now, so they will just get more and more crazy until a tipping point occurs. We are still in a lot of danger from them. From your link:

Thanks so much for posting this information. It's making sense to so many people, who have no voice in media.

(22,541 posts)Mad as hell, matter of fact.
Please excuse me but I would love to see somebody wipe that obnoxious, arrogant smirk off Ted Cruz's face. Metaphorically speaking. Or not. OK, OK, metaphorically speaking. Dammit. The one time I get pissed off enough to consider otherwise, I still can't get quite that angry. It was close, though.

(296,848 posts)I can't stand to look at his face in a graphic or any of their faces in the screen shots posted on DU.
Rich assholes being smug and smirky about bowing to Kochs while attempting to take away Health Care from the American People. The same with yanking food out of people's mouths. And, now shutting down the Gov so all those people like you won't get their paychecks while they still get theirs.

(53,661 posts)Translations for those tears:
Why did I ever get into this con job?
I'm just a tool, nothing more, nothing less.
Will the Koch brothers protect me when I'm out of office?
My name shall live in infamy.
Why must I always make a fool of myself?
Obama is scaring me!
What, the bar is closed?
I am sooo going to hell!
