Issa Subpoenas Gruber For Everything on ObamaCare

Gruber faced the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Wednesday and apologized profusely for his many comments over the past several years in which he called the American voters stupid and boasted that a “lack of transparency” helped get the Affordable Care Act passed by Congress.

Instead of admitting how much he made off the health-care law, Gruber repeatedly referred the committee to his attorney.

Jonathan Gruber Subpoenaed After Refusing to Disclose How Much Government Paid Him
