"Ecstatic" over Colorado Connect4Health sign-up

I volunteer at a food bank in Colorado and today I worked with a husband and wife who haven't had health insurance for some time and are ineligible for Medicaid. They have 2 young daughters. Insurance at the father's workplace is available at $1200/mo which they cannot afford. Through the Connect4Colorado website, they signed up for family insurance/dental for $264/mo after their tax credit of $349. They were ecstatic!! And they told me that I just couldn't imagine the instant relief they experienced knowing they'll have insurance in just over 2 weeks.



I love Obamacare!!
