Kathleen Sebelius Resigns

2014-04-11T10:39:44-04:00

Just heard about this on the news this morning. They are saying she resigned due to difficulties with the ACA website and the director of Management and Budget, Sylvia Mathews Burwell, will be appointed to take up the helm.

I personally feel that the ACA is a horrific law and hurts the American people. I am also scared that the budget chief for this administration will now be leading DHHS.

Any thoughts?

I completely disagree about the ACA but that's a different discussion altogether. At this point, I don't see a need for her resignation--unless she had planned to resign once the initial enrollment numbers were met. That actually makes some sense... stick with it until it works and then resign because of the massive screw up with the website.
