1,000 signatures needed: Sign the petition to pass the Launching with Healthcare Act →
Friend, Let’s be serious: In this economy, young people aren’t magically financially secure the day they turn 26. Yet under the Affordable Care Act, the current age cut-off is set at 26, assuming that most young adults would have settled into careers offering employer-sponsored insurance by 26. However, 15% of 26-year-old Americans are uninsured — the highest uninsured rate at any age! We need to fix this outdated system. That’s why I teamed up with Rep. Maxwell Frost to introduce the Launching with Healthcare Act. This would allow young adults to remain on a parent’s health insurance plan through age 30. This bill gives the next generation a little more breathing room to build their careers, save money, and actually get ahead.
Thank you, Janelle |
