Abstract:
Congress should provide individuals with the ability to control their own health care decisions. The Tax Equity and Affordability Act, by giving individuals who do not fit into the current health care system an alternative way to secure private health care coverage, embodies sound public policy and is based on free-market principles that promote fairness, choice, and personal ownership.
