As of today, conservative groups across America are now demanding that Senate Republicans repeal each and every last one of Obamacare’s taxes. Their behest followed after reports that senators may permit segments of the (Un)Affordable Care Act’s taxes to remain in place. The conservative group forwarded a coalition letter to Chairman Orrin Hatch which demanded for remaining Obamacare taxes to be repealed. Excerpts from the letter directly highlight the negative offshoots of the remaining Obamacare taxes. Additionally, the letter succeeds in pinpointing a declaration that Senate Republicans made on February 1, 2017: “All of the ObamaCare taxes need to go as part of the repeal process.” This statement is accurate for a plethora of reasons.
For starters, as the conservative groups pinpointed in their letter, the trillions of dollars created by Obamacare has a severely adverse impact on small businesses and the middle class. High taxes hurt tremendously and while the President has moved to implement beneficial tax reform policies, the Obamacare taxes could easily sabotage his progress. Not only will Obamacare taxes steal additional funds from the pockets of hardworking Americans, but healthcare costs will increase while opportunities to receive care will plummet. Rising costs coupled with diminished earnings is a recipe for failure, disaster, and poverty. Senate Republicans have a responsibility to do what is in the best interest of the American people. Conservative groups across the nation are doing an excellent job in holding leaders in Washington accountable.
