NCA lobbied on behalf of H.R. 5963 and S. 3063, the Health Insurance Tax Relief Act. These bills would have delayed the implementation of the tax on health insurance policies sold in the U.S. under the Affordable Care Act. This tax will negatively impact employees and employers in the club industry while providing no additional benefits to those employees and employers. Neither bill passed.
