Democrat Claiming to be Obamacare Watchdog Just Voted Against Improving Healthcare.gov Security

Democrat Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick (AZ) is running a re-election ad in which she claims that she is blowing the whistle on problems with the Obamacare rollout. That in and of itself is a joke — she supported the law when it was passed and still supports it.

Today, it became even more of a joke. The House passed a bill today, H.R. 3362, that requires that the government disclose to Americans when their information has been compromised via Healthcare.gov. Thirty-three Democrats joined the GOP majority in passing the bill, 259-154. It was not a close vote.

But Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick was not among the yays. The so-called watchdog just voted against letting Americans know when Healthcare.gov has endangered their privacy and personal information.
