Trump will allow you to buy health insurance across state lines

[Русский агент]

President Trump is preparing an executive order to allow people to purchase health insurance across state lines, a reform conservatives have long championed as a way to bring costs down and stir greater competition in the national marketplace.

The executive action gives the White House a chance to follow through on at least one promise related to healthcare reform after Senate Republicans' second attempt to overhaul Obamacare failed this week. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul first mentioned the action during a TV appearance Wednesday morning, saying Trump was considering taking matters into his own hands.

"I think there's going to be big news from the White House in the next week or two, something they can do on their own," Paul told MSNBC, adding that Trump "can legalize on his own the ability of individuals to join a group or a health association across state lines and buy insurance."

A Senate GOP source told the Washington Examiner the executive action is considered "a done deal" and likely to be announced "in the next few weeks."

Trump later confirmed to reporters he is likely to issue an order permitting "people to go out across state lines, do lots of things, and buy their own healthcare."

The president described the forthcoming executive action as "very major," adding he also intends to spend the next few months negotiating with DEMOCRATS on a bipartisan healthcare bill.

I agree. This is actually better than anything now or recently our government could come up with. This will actually do something to ease the burden.

Actually, there are states that already allow it and it hasn't changed anything for consumers

This is what improves if not fixes Obamacare IMO. Of course because it's Trump's idea the never trumpsters will declare it to be waycist. Actually, I'd make it mandatory for any ins. company offering hlth. ins., they'd have to offer it to all 50 states.

The insurance companies oppose this. They like their little state protected monopolies. They don’t like competition. Fuck em

But it's all very confusing.

The mandates for the bill are still in place, meaning it's a lose-lose for insurers, in any state. It's hard to craft an affordable plan when you are required to make men pay for maternity, etc. etc. etc.
