Mike Hash, director of the Office of Health Reform at the Department of Health and Human Services, is set to meet with House Democrats tomorrow morning to brief them on the botched Obamacare rollout. According to the Washington Post, it’s the first time Congress will have been briefed on HealthCare.gov since the Oct. 1 rollout, and Republicans are not invited.
Look forward to @pfeiffer44 explaining why the White House is briefing only Congressional Democrats on #Obamacare glitches, not everyone.

@BDayspring @pfeiffer44 humiliation twice in one day is tough. They're pacing themselves.

Will be interested to hear why the White House will brief only Democrats on Obamacare glitches and not the entire House.

@DougHeye @KRenner2 Doug, I doubt any reporter has enough sense to ask that very good question.

@DougHeye @railboy63 so they can get their marching orders on how to cover it all up

How bad is the ObamaCare situation that the admin is doing closed door hearings with Democrats?

@RBPundit Those closed door planning sessions are what got us into this frigging mess.

House Speaker John Boehner’s spokesman Brendan Buck is calling the exclusion of Republican members a snub.
"Far too much information about Obamacare’s rollout is being concealed from the public," says Boehner spokesman @Brendan_Buck.

Boehner spox @Brendan_Buck calls Obama's denying O'care briefing to House GOP a "snub", asks admin to "honor its promises of transparency."
