(Bloomberg) -- While Republican presidential candidates debate the best way to repeal and replace Obamacare, Democrats have a different issue to work out: what to do about the law’s excise tax on high-cost employer-based health care plans.
On Tuesday, Hillary Clinton called on Congress to repeal the so-called "Cadillac tax" soon.“Too many Americans are struggling to meet the cost of rising deductibles and drug prices,” Clinton said in a statement released Tuesday.
“That’s why, among other steps, I encourage Congress to repeal the so- called Cadillac tax, which applies to some employer-based health plans, and to fully pay for the cost of repeal.”
