Tell Congress: Repeal the Health Care Benefits Tax

Congress

A new tax on health care plans is threatening to hurt working families. The 40% tax on health benefits will hit many average plans -- hurting the people the plans are supposed to help. It was designed to make working people pay more when we need health care, through higher deductibles, co-pays and other out-of-pocket costs. We need to make our voices heard right now to make sure this burdensome tax is repealed. 

Add your name to sign the petition to Congress asking it to keep the Affordable Care Act affordable by supporting a repeal of the health benefits tax.

I am writing to urge you to support repeal of the health benefits tax. By driving up working families’ out-of-pocket costs, the tax is already hurting the people who can least afford to pay more for health care when they get sick. When these costs go up, more and more working families are forced to choose between taking on medical bills they cannot afford and going without the care they need. No one should have to make this choice—for themselves or their families. Please support repeal of the health benefits tax.
