Connecticut, like other states, launched an online health exchange -- Access Health CT -- where residents can shop for and purchase health insurance. There could be new opportunities for the unemployed or uninsured to receive health insurance. Here, we gather our coverage of changes under the new federal law.

WNPR

In this edition of our weekly news roundtable The Wheelhouse, we ask two big questions surrounding the 2014 race for governor. What impact will John Rowland's latest scandal have on Republicans? What impact will President Barack Obama have on Governor Dannel Malloy and the state's Democratic congressional delegation?

Also: did you join the herds of UConn basketball fans in line for $1.00 burritos?

GUESTS:

  • Bill Curry - Political analyst and former Democratic nominee for governor
  • Arielle Levin-Becker - Reporter for The Connecticut Mirror covering health and healthcare
  • Alan Greenblatt - Political reporter for NPR.org
  • Neil Vigdor - Political reporter for the Hearst Connecticut newspapers
