Obamacare forces Tennessee school district to shut down

A school district in Tennessee is blaming Obamacare for its decision to shut its doors.

In an AP report, Clay County Director of Schools Jerry Strong said the school board made its decision to cancel classes because of budget issues that are related to government mandates that the district can't afford. He said the Affordable Care Act was the "straw that broke the camel's back" and that "it has made it very difficult for us to have our employees properly covered and meet the mandates of the law."

County Commissioner Parrish Wright said the county does have enough money to operate classes in the county's three schools until the end of the year, but not far into the next, so the board chose to deal with the issue sooner than later.
