Latta co-sponsors health plan bill

Submitted information

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green) has signed on as an original co-sponsor to the “Keep Your Health Plan” Act (H.R. 3350), a bill to allow insurance plans offered currently in the individual market to exist through 2014 and ensure that Americans who maintain their health care plan will not face a penalty under Obamacare.

“We heard time and time again the President say, ‘if you like your health care plan, you can keep it,’ but now we know that just is not true,” Latta said. “People in Ohio and throughout the U.S. are faced with letters from their insurance companies canceling their health care plans as a result of Obamacare.

“The Keep Your Health Plan Act is about providing fairness to hardworking American families and granting them the choice to keep their current health care plan,” Latta added.

As previously reported by multiple news outlets, millions of Americans have been notified by their insurance companies that they are no longer able to keep their existing insurance policies.

H.R. 3350 has been referred to the House Ways and Means Committee. Read the “Keep Your Health Plan Act” bill text HERE.
