With any luck Hagan will be an ex-senator after the 2014 midterm elections.

RALEIGH (WTVD) — Fallout from the national healthcare overhaul was a hot topic in downtown Raleigh Monday.

Sen. Kay Hagan and Rep. Renee Ellmers attended the same leadership conference and discussed with ABC11 their very different positions on the Affordable Care Act.

Both Hagan and Ellmers are up for re-election, and the new healthcare law will be integral to their campaigns.

Hagan was one of the speakers at Monday’s forum but was attacked for her own leadership role when it comes to Obamacare.

ABC11 asked Hagan about the infamous promise that the public could keep their health insurance if they wanted, but she ducked the question more than once, blaming insurance companies instead.

“I think you look back at the insurance companies, for three years, sold these policies without telling the consumer that they would have to be canceled,” said Hagan when asked if she knew people would lose their policies.

Meanwhile, Ellmers has been trying to scuttle the Affordable Care Act from the outset.

“We were made a promise, that the American people would be able to keep their health insurance if they liked it and that they would be able to keep their doctor. Now we’re finding out that those things are not true and we’ve got to fix it,” Ellmers told ABC11.
