House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA) is asking the nation's leading technology companies -- including Verizon, Google, and Microsoft -- to detail their involvement in the scramble to fix the technical problems that have besieged the ObamaCare enrollment website.

Chairman Issa suggested the Administration may be running afoul of federal procurement procedures in the scramble to get the website fixed. “Despite the President’s assertion that ‘we’re well into a “tech surge”’ neither the White House nor the Department of Health and Human Services is providing additional details about which private sector companies have been engaged or whether they are being engaged through the appropriate procurement processes,” Chairman Issa wrote in the letters, which were also sent to Oracle and Expedia.
