FREEDOMWORKS 09/28/2017 OBAMACARE PREMIUMS CONTINUE TO SOAR! THANK THE DEMOCRATS FOR VOTING IN SUCH A TRAVESTY!

Republicans laid out a framework for a transformative tax reform plan on Wednesday by issuing a set of individual and corporate tax cut targets jointly agreed on by the Trump administration and GOP leaders in the Senate and House of Representatives.
The outline, which Trump will tout in a speech in Indianapolis, is a conservative approach to spurring economic growth and providing relief to middle-class families. Read more here...


Radical environmentalists are fighting to save Obama’s crooked Waters of the United States (WOTUS) regulation. This bureaucratic power grab lets liberal DC bureaucrats regulate something as small as a drainage ditch the same as the Mississippi River.
That's costing American families, farmers, and small businesses between $158 MILLION and $465 MILLION a year!
The House Freedom Caucus announced Wednesday that it backs the GOP's framework for tax reform, an important endorsement that boosts the chances of House passage of the plan in the coming weeks.
"President Trump has delivered a forward looking tax reform framework that will let hard working Americans keep more of their money, simplify our system, end carve outs for special interests, and will help make our businesses competitive abroad," the group said in a statement. Read more here...
Health insurers selling Affordable Care Act plans in Florida will raise monthly premiums by nearly 45 percent on average next year, the state’s Office of Insurance Regulation said Tuesday.
Florida regulators said most of the average rate hike — 31 percentage points — came from standard plans sold on the ACA exchange at healthcare.gov. Insurers raised rates for those plans due to the political uncertainty that has plagued the healthcare debate, specifically whether the Trump administration will stop paying subsidies that lower out-of-pocket costs for low-income Americans. Read more here...
Right now, there are 23 MILLION Americans who don’t have access to broadband Internet, just because of where they live. Connecting them to the Internet would help put more money in their pockets, create new American jobs, and further grow America’s economy.
Thankfully we can achieve all this by simply changing an FCC regulation. By getting the government out of the way and allowing the market to work, all of America will get better, faster, and cheaper broadband Internet.
That’s why FreedomWorks is asking you to contact these senators and urge them to support expanding America’s broadband Internet today. Take Action Here!
The Trump administration announced some bad news for Puerto Rico: It will not be waiving the Jones Act, which significantly restricts the ability of foreign or foreign-owned ships from bringing goods to Puerto Rico.
The law requires ships traveling from port to port in America and its territories be made, owned, and crewed by Americans. Foreign ships are permitted to dock in one port and that's it. They cannot visit several different ports sequentially within our borders. The result is higher shipping costs to islands like Puerto Rico and Hawaii because the law shields U.S.-based companies from a lot of foreign competition. Read more here...
