FILE - In this Sept. 25, 2013 file photo, Maygan Rollins, 22, a field organizer with Enroll America, left, talks with Jerry Correa, 27, about his health care options while canvassing at a bus stop in Miami. Enroll America is a private, non-profit organization running a grassroots campaign to encourage people to sign up for health care offered by the Affordable Care Act. Despite Florida Republicans' efforts to fight the Affordable Care Act at every turn, more than 440,000 Florida residents had been enrolled through the federal marketplace through the end of February. (AP Photo/Lynne Sladky, File) MIAMI (AP) — Florida's Republican leaders have fought the Affordable Care Act at every turn, banning navigators from county health departments, offering no state dollars to boost outreach efforts to 3.5 million uninsured and leading the fight to repeal the law.
