About This Episode: James O'Keefe is an award-winning journalist and writer. He is the founder and President of both Project Veritas and Project Veritas Action, non-profit organizations dedicated to investigating corruption, dishonesty, waste and fraud in both public and private institutions. James O'Keefe's investigations have led directly to the passage of new legislation, federal and state investigations, congressional inquiries, the defunding of taxpayer-funded groups, resignations, firings, restrainings, arrests and disciplinary action. O'Keefe's series of voter fraud exposés inspired several states to reform their election laws, forced resignations in Washington, and pushed FBI and Department of Justice officials to defend themselves before federal lawmakers. His investigation into ACORN led to the group's collapse. He caused a Planned Parenthood Vice President to be fired, National Public Radio executives to be fired, an Enroll America director to be fired, Medicaid worker retrainings, an investigation into Battleground Texas, and Congressional field hearings into Obamacare navigator fraud. The Nation magazine wrote, “O'Keefe's influence on voting rights opponents and legislators alike is particularly jarring.” Slate.com agreed, “O'Keefe has had more of an impact on the 2012 election than any other journalist.” During the 2016 election cycle, both Project Veritas and Project Veritas Action released videos exposing key Democrats not only admitting that voter fraud exists, but also showing how to successfully commit it on a massive scale. One result was that a New York City Democratic election commissioner was forced out of his position by Mayor de Blasio and the New York Assembly.

Punya Krishnappa makes her debut as the newest co-host of the Model Majority Podcast, bringing in her POV and experience from both of Obama’s presidential campaigns, Hillary Clinton’s 2016 run, Enroll America, and the restaurant...
Donald Trump's historic victory will lead to sweeping changes in America's politics and policy. That may start with health care: Trump has repeatedly pledged to immediately repeal and replace Obamacare. And he's got a GOP-led Congress to help him do it. But two influential figures — on opposite sides of the political spectrum — say the president-elect's rhetoric is about to collide with harsh reality: Rolling back the law isn't going to be easy. First, AEI's James Capretta joined PULSE CHECK (starts at the 1:35 mark) to discuss his reaction to Trump's policy-light campaign and stunning victory, why he's an advocate of Speaker Paul Ryan's repeal-and-replace plan — which is expected to be Trump's blueprint — and why he thinks the Affordable Care Act isn't totally going away. Then, Families USA's Ron Pollack joined PULSE CHECK (starts at the 23:30 mark) to explain why he's declaring "total war" to keep Obamacare alive, why he thinks Gov. Matt Bevin's failure to completely roll back the ACA in Kentucky is a promising sign, and what happens to pro-Obamacare organizations like Enroll America.

Obamacare rates are going up 25 percent and insurers are dropping out. It's been a rough few months for the law — and pundits' doom-and-gloom predictions are only making Anne Filipic's job harder. Filipic is president of Enroll America, the non-profit group dedicated to boosting Obamacare enrollment, and she says that the reality on the ground is much more positive than the picture painted in D.C. And Filipic, who was then-Sen. Barack Obama's Iowa field manager in 2007, talks about how her team is again approaching Nov. 1 open enrollment like a national political campaign. Filipic joined POLITICO's "Pulse Check" podcast to discuss how she's thinking about Obamacare's looming open enrollment (starts at the 2:35 mark), whether she's worried about the future of the law (13:30 mark), how she shifted from White House official to health care leader (21:15), what Donald Trump means, and doesn't mean, for Obamacare (28:30) and how becoming a mom has changed her relationship with her work (35:20). Plus: Don't miss the lightning round quiz at 39:10. We’d appreciate your help: Please share PULSE CHECK and rate us on your favorite podcast app! Have questions, suggestions or feedback?

Congress just agreed to a massive $1.1 trillion budget deal — with major implications for health care — and Dan, Rivka, and Rob break it down.(Starts at the 3:30 mark.) Then they're joined by Anne Filipic, the head of Enroll America, to discuss how this year's open enrollment period is going. (16:25.) And stick around until the end for the most emotional electives yet. (32:50.) NOTICE: We're doing an episode that's entirely listener Q&A, and we'd love to take your questions on the air!

Anne Filipic is the President of Enroll America. Filipic has been tasked with taking one of the most politicized and divisive pieces of legislation in recent American history and turning it into a kitchen table, family-friendly consumer issue. She joins the podcast to discuss the marketing tactics she is utilizing to sell Obamacare. Filipic tells us the truth on how things are really going with Obamacare and whether they are hitting their metrics. She also explains why she set a deadline of March 31st for enrollment. Anne Filipic serves as President of Enroll America, a non-profit organization dedicated to maximizing the number of Americans who enroll in health coverage made available through the Affordable Care Act. Most recently, Ms. Filipic was the Deputy Director of the White House Office of Public Engagement. Previously, she served as Deputy Director of Intergovernmental Affairs for Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. Her background includes key positions in a variety of electoral and issue campaigns, including the 2008 Obama for America campaign, where she served as Field Director during the Iowa caucuses and Colorado General Election Director. As an early leader in the Obama for America campaign, Ms. Filipic played a key role in developing and implementing the campaign’s successful organizing model, which has fundamentally altered the nature of grassroots engagement. Since joining Enroll America in January 2013, Ms. Filipic has appeared in dozens of media outlets including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Bloomberg News, MSNBC’s “All In with Chris Hayes,” CNN’s “CrossFire,” and “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.” Representing the nation’s leading health coverage enrollment organization with a staff of over 260, a coalition of over 2000 partner organizations, and a network of over 15,000 volunteers, Ms. Filipic has become a leading voice on the consumer experience and best practices around ACA enrollment and engagement.

Listen NowThis past October 1st uninsured Americans who qualify for coverage under the Affordable Care Act could begin choosing a health care insurance plan offered via their state's healthcare insurance marketplace or exchange. The CBO estimates about 14 million Americans will buy health care insurance for 2014 and about 25 million will do so by the end of the decade (still leaving about 20 million Americans uninsured). Those that make more than the Federal Poverty Level/FPL but less than four times that level, or $94,000 for a family of four, can buy subsidized insurance and for those making less that 133% of the FPL ($15,000 a year for a single adult or $31,000 a year for a family of four) can sign up for Medicaid if their state is participating in the ACA's Medicaid expansion program - currently 24 states. Many American who can reasonably afford health care insurance do not buy it and approximately 40% of Americans who qualify for Medicaid do not subscribe. Since policy is what policy does, the relevant question is how many Americans will sign up for health care insurance under the ACA.During this 22-minute interview, Ms. Barba Brown discusses Enroll America's mission, its various activites, moreover in 10 states, to advocate for coverage and to educate the uninsured about obtaining either private insurance or Medicaid coverage and how and why she believes Americans will substantially sign up for health care insurance under the ACA. Ms. Jessica Barba Brown currently serves as National Communications Director for Enroll America. Previously she was Vice President for Program Development at Faith in Public Life and prior still Communications Director for former U.S. Representative Tom Perriello. Ms. Barba Brown began her career managing communications and branding efforts for nonprofit social service organizations such as City Year New York and CancerCare in New York City. She holds a B.A. in Gender and Sexuality Studies from New York University. This is a public episode.
