Pallone, Levin, Scott: Five Years in, the ACA is Working

“Five years ago, our nation moved away from an increasingly expensive health care system that allowed insurers to kick Americans off of their insurance plans when they got sick, to a system with vital protections and more affordable and accessible coverage for everyone. Today, health care costs are growing at the slowest rate on record and the percentage of uninsured Americans is the lowest in 50 years. People no longer need to fear being denied insurance because of preexisting conditions, or being charged more simply because they are a woman. The Affordable Care Act is working, plain and simple."
