End HealthCare Mandate

End the HealthCare Mandate
Repeal ObamaCare
Install Free Market Solutions More Americans are realizing that the Obama administration’s version of “change” differs from the mainstream concept of 'change'.

Change we can ALL support is legitimate reform based on the principles found in two new bills introduced by Ron Paul.H.R. 4995, the End the Mandate Act, repeals the recently-passed federal mandate requiring Americans to carry government-approved health insurance.This past Thursday, Congressman Paul introduced H.R. 5444, the “Private Option Health Care Act,” which would completely repeal ObamaCare and replace it with free market solutions. In sharp contrast to mandates and force, H.R. 5444 would:

Provide all Americans with a tax credit for 100% of health care expenses. The tax credit is fully refundable against both income and payroll taxes;

Allow individuals to roll over unused amounts in cafeteria plans and Flexible Savings Accounts (FSA);

Provide a tax credit for premiums for high-deductible insurance policies connected with Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and allow seniors to use funds in HSAs to pay for medigap policies;
Repeal the 7.5% threshold for the deduction of medical expenses, thus making all medical expenses tax deductible;

Guarantee individuals can purchase health insurance across state lines;

Permit a tax credit for negative outcomes insurance purchased before medical treatment, reducing expensive malpractice suits;

Reduce barriers to importing FDA-approved prescription drugs.

As Congressman Paul said in his speech introducing H.R. 5444, “the Private Option Health Care Act allows Congress to correct the mistake it made last month by replacing the new health care law with health care measures that give control over health care to individuals, instead of the federal government and politically-influential corporations.”Let's urge Congressman Kratovil to strengthen our health care system by co-sponsoring and fighting for a standalone, up or down vote on H.R. 5444, the Private Option Health Care Act, and H.R. 4995, the End the Mandate Act.

Since Rep Kratovil voted against the Health Care Bill, but failed to vote for further study, he should applaud the corrective measures contained in Congressman Paul's leglislation.

P.S. Demand that Kratovil stand up for your freedom, the Constitution, and your right to make your own health care decisions by supporting H.R. 5444 and H.R. 4995.
