REPORTER: We're hearing voices in the insurance industry saying that the ACA is going to lead directly to premium increases.
NANCY PELOSI: Really? Who? Name names.
REPORTER: And you're saying they're going to lead to premium decreases.
PELOSI: Name names.
REPORTER: I don't have any. But it's on background and off the record, and they're saying this law is going to do it. It's a sensitive subject and they don't want to stir you guys up too much.
PELOSI: Well, you know, how can I answer that? Somebody who will be nameless says something in private that you want me to respond to.
REPORTER: Well the industry is always going to blame the law for something. I understand that point. But you're saying that the premiums are going to decrease. They're saying it's going to increase and they're blaming the law. So how do you reconcile those two conflicting things?
