On August 31, Governors John Kasich (OH) and John Hickenlooper (CO) released a bipartisan proposal to stabilize the health insurance market. The letter is signed by seven governors and encourages Congress to take immediate steps to make health insurance coverage more stable and affordable.
The proposal recommends immediate federal action to stabilize markets, preserve recent coverage gains, control costs through an active federal/state partnership that is based on innovation, and a shared commitment to improve overall health system performance.
