On July 11, the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee held a full committee markup of
numerous health care bills aimed at expanding access to health savings accounts (HSAs) and lowering health care premiums for American employers and employees. These bills contained critical
provisions that ABC has expressed support for, including tax relief from Obamacare’s employer mandate, increasing contribution limits for HSAs and modernizing HSAs to allow for telehealth and wellness coverage. ABC is encouraged by the House’s progress on these important priorities to lower health care costs and eliminate burdensome policies for the construction industry and hardworking Americans.
