This legislation would provide relief to Americans who are trapped in overpriced and unreliable Obamacare plans.

Congressman Pat Tiberi (R-OH), chairman of the Ways and Means Health Subcommittee and Congressman Michael C. Burgess, M.D. (R-TX), chairman of the Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee, introduced legislation that would repeal Obamacare's individual health insurance mandate.

"We need to put patients and families, not the federal government, in charge of their own health care," said Tiberi. "However, the individual mandate is forcing Americans to purchase plans they don't want, don't need, and can't afford to use. This legislation would provide relief to Americans who are trapped in overpriced and unreliable Obamacare plans and eliminate the threat of an unfair fine from the IRS."

"Obamacare's individual mandate fundamentally alters the relationship between the government and the governed, severely limiting individual freedom," said Burgess. "Since its conception, the individual mandate has been a direct attack on our personal liberty. This bill will provide the American people immediate relief from this overstep."
