With each passing day, it gets clearer and clearer that Obamacare has become unaffordable for more and more people. Since the law went into effect, premiums for individual coverage have more than doubled, patient choice has declined, and state exchanges have collapsed. Although Democrats would like nothing more than to blame President Trump for these problems, high healthcare costs and lack of choice are a direct result of Obamacare’s rigid and inflexible regulations.

This is why we introduced the Flexibility Through Lower Expenses Health Care (FLEX) Act, a bill that will reverse some of the damaging effects of Obamacare by lowering costs and increasing healthcare choices for more people. More specifically, our bill codifies into law the Trump administration’s rules on short-term limited-duration insurance and association health plans.
