LA. REPORT ON HEALTH INSURANCE: Republicans in Washington, DC continue efforts to repeal and replace the federal Affordable Care Act commonly known as “Obama-Care”. The U.S. House of Representatives passed their version in a party-line vote last May. The Senate has yet to release details of their version or hold any public hearings to discuss it. But an independent nonprofit organization: The Louisiana Budget Project, a group that studies budget policy in the state released a report Tuesday detailing how the American Health Care Act, could impact thousands of families in the state. According to the report: as it stands now, the American Health Care Act would reverse recent insurance coverage gains and strain Louisiana’s budget. http://www.labudget.org/lbp/
