Health Care
Last year the Affordable Care Act was voted into existence by Tennessee Democrats. Elements of this new law, which encourages better private-market competition, include a pre-existing condition health insurance plan. Under this plan children with asthma can now get coverage and stay on their parents’ health care plan. Tennessee Democrats have also sponsored the Medicare Information Act. This act makes sure that every taxpayer would receive information on their lifetime of Medicare contributions. The Tennessee Democratic party believes in making health care more affordable and accessible to everyone.
