I have been following the of health care reform for many
years as I am sure many of you have. I know that the State of Washington will continue to implement the Affordable Care Act as
required, and help the citizens of our state navigate the evolving health insurance
marketplace.
While the law expands coverage to millions of Americans, it
does not meaningfully address the unsustainable rise in health care
costs. It also includes a premium tax that I don't like because it
increases the cost of coverage for consumers and employers.
I will
continue to follow up with policymakers on both sides of the aisle and voice my opinion to ensure
affordability, security and choice.
I agree that some of the provisions are just what we need and every politician so far tried to avoid stepping into this complicated issue as to not alienate constituents. Time will tell how this will evolve and change.
For now we have a ruling.
