Millions of federal workers told to promote Obamacare

February 11, 2015

We have over 4-million federal employees and they're being asked to pitch their friends and family to enroll in Obamacare.
Even solders have received official flyers to hand out and postcards to mail. The White House hopes this will add millions of people to those who depend on government--and taxpayer money--to provide their healthcare.
Curiously, the federal workers are also being reassured that they are safe, because they are exempt from Obamacare, yet they're supposed to encourage you to sign up.
We already spend almost $700-million a year to promote Obamacare, and now millions of workers are asked to spend their time promoting it also.
