Bill to repeal health insurance tax gains steam in House

The Hill reports:
A bipartisan bill to help health insurance companies avoid fees under ObamaCare is now backed by a majority of House lawmakers, its sponsors announced Wednesday.

The bill would repeal an ObamaCare provision known as the “health insurance tax” (HIT), which charges insurers an annual fee to help pay for the healthcare law.

Rep. Charles Boustany Jr. (R-La.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.), who introduced the bill in February, announced Wednesday that they have reached 218 co-sponsors, which they hope will quickly lead to a full House vote.
The beginning of getting rid of ObamaCare.
