Sen. Ted Cruz presents detailed alternative to 'Obamacare' in the form of law

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Fox News:

Sen. Ted Cruz is adding his own health insurance proposal to several others by fellow Republicans to counter President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act.

 

The Texan’s measure calls for people to be able to cross state lines to buy a health insurance plan, and would undo parts of the president’s plan, known as Obamacare, The Hill reported.

Sen. Marco Rubio, a Florida Republican, is a co-sponsor of Cruz’s bill.

Cruz offered his plan on Tuesday, as the U.S. Supreme Court prepared to hear arguments in a major test of Obama's health overhaul that threatens insurance coverage for millions of people.

Cruz’s plan, called the Health Care Choices Act, would omit the mandate to buy insurance, among other things in the president’s program.

The Hill says that Cruz, and other Republicans who have submitted their own alternatives to Obamacare, want to point to their plans if the Supreme Court takes aim at subsidies that allow some 8 million people in about 36 states to afford healthcare.

The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments on Wednesday.
