Reactions to Obama's speech on government shutdown
We just heard President Obama's remarks on the government shutdown and the Affordable Care Act. For some analysis we're joined by KPCC's Washington correspondent Kitty Felde and democratic congresswoman Janice Hahn.
U.S. President Barack Obama delivers remarks about the launch of the Affordable Care Act's health insurance marketplaces and the first federal government shutdown in 17 years as he's joined by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius (R) and Americans who will benefit from the Affordable Care Act in the Rose Garden of the White House October 1, 2013 in Washington, DC. House Republicans and Senate Democrats continue to volley legislation back and forth as they battle over a budget to keep the government running and delaying or defunding "Obamacare."
