Rep. French Hill (AR-02) today released the following statement after House Republicans passed the CHOICE Arrangement Act, which helps small businesses offer more affordable health insurance plan options to their employees.

"As a Co-Chair of the Congressional Entrepreneurship Caucus and a former community banker, I understand the importance of small businesses and their impact on economic growth in our local communities. Today, I was proud to support H.R. 3799, the Custom Health Option and Individual Care Expense (CHOICE) Arrangement Act, which would help small businesses offer more affordable health insurance plans to their employees and allow employees to choose the health insurance plan that works best for them - ultimately saving their employees money and providing them with the care they want.

"I remain committed to advocating on behalf of small businesses owners and employees in Congress."
