Two Planned Parenthood chapters, two United Way organizations, a food bank association and a Catholic hospital system are among 90 nonprofit groups that will receive a total of $60 million to help people sign up for health insurance, the Department of Health and Human Services announced today.

Planned Parenthood chapters in Montana and Iowa received grants totaling about $500,000. Ascension Health, the nation’s largest Catholic hospital system, won a $241,000 grant to help people in Kansas. The Ohio Association of Food Banks will receive a $2.1 million grant.

Florida Covering Kids & Families, based at the University of South Florida, saw its federal navigator grant increase to $5.4 million from $4.2 million a year ago. The university will oversee navigators this year in all 67 Florida counties, as it’s added the heavily-populated Miami-Dade, Broward and Monroe counties in southern part of the state.

I was going to say that if you take their money you are a whore. Free beer sounds good though.

Last year the three month enrollment was several million short of their goal.

So they extended it month by month (an additional 3 months) until they reached it. Reminds me of their voting patterns...keep voting till the goal is reached.

This year they have only 3 months (end of Dec) to enroll. I think they're very nervous about reaching it.

These idiot LIBs/DIMs just printing money and giving it to their friends. My only hope is that they get their heads caught in the presses. LIBs/DIMs are a pitiful lot.
