Earlier today, Sylvia Burwell, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, briefed the President about the end of this year's Open Enrollment period for the Affordable Care Act. She told him that 11.4 million Americans have signed up or re-enrolled for quality, affordable health insurance.
That's right. 11.4 million. And more people newly signed up on Sunday than on any other day before.
"It gives you some sense of how hungry people were out there for affordable, accessible health insurance," the President said. "And that's really the top-line message: The Affordable Care Act is working."
