REPUBLICAN HEALTHCARE PLAN – THE CARE ACT
On March 31, 2014, Senator Richard Burr, Republican, North Carolina, was the guest speaker at a John Locke Foundation luncheon. The subject of his talk was The Patient CARE Act which was sponsored by Senator Burr, Senator Tom Coburn, Republican, Oklahoma, and Senator Orrin Hatch, Republican, Utah. This proposal is a comprehensive alternative to Obama’s Affordable Care Act aka Obamacare.
Below you will see photos from the luncheon and links to a detailed explanation of the Republican plan plus a video of Senator Burr’s talk. Many thanks to Becki Gray, Vice President for Outreach of the John Locke Foundation, for providing these links.
