I'll let the facts spread the garbage:
Amanda Ptashkin, the outreach and advocacy director for Georgians for a Healthy Future and a navigator herself, says she and other navigators had to go through a time-consuming process to get certified, first by the federal government, which requires 20 hours of training, and then by the state. The state's regulations required fingerprints, passing a background check, an affidavit of citizenship, getting a driver's license photo taken, paying a $50 fee, more training, taking a test, and waiting. When the exchanges opened on Oct. 1, only four or five navigators in the state had made it through the process. Almost a month later, they're up to 45 and things are working more or less smoothly, but it's difficult to coordinate efforts in the absence of state involvement. "It's unfortunate that we don't have leadership on the state level to help inform consumers," Ptashkin said.

wow
Horrible obstructionist Republicans caring about the security of their constituents when the Obama administration doesn't give a damn about them.
