Bill Nelson tells Sebelius to hold Obamacare contractors responsible -- 'burn their fingers and make 'em pay'

6

November

Sen. Bill Nelson, a member of the Senate Finance Committee, got to question HHS Secretary Katheleen Sebelius during a hearing today. But unlike Republicans and some Democrats, Nelson spared her of some tough criticism over the disastrous rollout of healthcare.gov. Instead, Nelson wants government contractors to be held responsible.

"I want you to hold them to account," the Florida Democrat told Sebelius (see very end of video). "I want you to burn their fingers and make ‘em pay for not being responsible and producing a product that all of us could be proud."
