Oct 17, 2013 0 Comments Infidel Alie
Excerpted from THE DAILY CALLER: A Kansas Obamacare “navigator” stormed the property of the Republican secretary of state earlier this year, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.
“It is shocking that the Obama administration has hired as a navigator a person who has been caught trespassing and attempting to intimidate a public official,” Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach told TheDCNF.
“This kind of thug activity is bad enough, but giving this person federal tax dollars is sickening,” he added.
Under the Affordable Care Act, 105 organizations have received $67 million in federal to help guide Obamacare enrollees through the process of obtaining health insurance under the new system. Veronica Miranda was one of four people, called navigators, filling this role in the Wichita area.
Miranda is also a member of Sunflower Community Action, which organized the invasion of Kobach’s property back in June.
Miranda is shown on the organization’s social media sites taking part in rallies and various other campaigns, mostly in support of immigrant rights.
In 2012, Kobach said that Sunflower Community Action had “taken up ACORN’s mantle here in Kansas.”
Like the now-defunct ACORN, Sunflower Community Action is a non-profit grassroots community organizer. Sunflower Community Action is affiliated with the Chicago-based National People’s Action.
On June 15, around 200 protesters organized by the Wichita-based group occupied Kobach’s property, which is located near Kansas City.
The protesters left shoes on Kobach’s doorstep as a symbol of the fathers that, according to the group, his policies were responsible for deporting. Kobach has been a strong opponent of illegal immigration.
A photograph showing Miranda surrounded by fellow Kobach protesters in front of the buses that transported the protesters to the Republican’s home was posted to the navigator’s Instagram account. Another photo shows Miranda among a larger group of protesters lined up in front of four buses.
Miranda was hired as an Obamacare navigator through Hunter Health Clinic, which is located in Wichita.
Hunter Health Clinic received a grant to provide the navigator services. Overall three larger organizations won federal grant money totaling nearly $900,000 for those services.
Sunflower Community Action helped advertise the navigator services by directing visitors towards Miranda. Keep Reading
