Sebelius admits: 'It is possible' that FELONS could become Obamacare workers and access taxpayers' personal information
This has a really bad smell to it...
On the U.K. Daily Mail website, David Martosko reports this. Skeptical me wonders if the U.S. media will even notice:
"'Isn't it true that there is no federal requirement for navigators to undergo a criminal background check,' Cornyn asked her, 'even though they will receive personal – sensitive personal information from they individuals they help sign up for the Affordable Care Act?' 'That is true,' Sebelius responded in a moment of nervousness. 'States could add an additional – um – background checks and other features, but it is not part of the federal requirement.' 'So a convicted felon could be a navigator,' an annoyed Cornyn followed up, 'and could acquire sensitive personal information from an individual, unbeknownst to them?' 'Uh, that is possible,' she said, shifting blame to the groups responsible for deploying navigators in the field."
