My legislation, the Simple Savings Tax Relief Act of 2005, simply eliminates the taxation of interest earned in savings accounts, such as passbook savings accounts or bank certificates of deposit.
The people have an incentive to spend wisely. So the health care savings accounts are such a good thing. It's such a good idea. And it's time for it.
Voluntary personal savings accounts would enable future retirees to harness the power of the marketplace when saving for their retirements.
We designed both our state employee health plans and the one we created for low-income Hoosiers as Health Savings Accounts, and now in the tens of thousands these citizens are proving that they are fully capable of making smart, consumerist choices about their own health care.
Fully repeal Obamacare and replace it with health savings accounts. And we can do that.
The reason that I proposed health savings accounts for everybody starting at birth, is because you very quickly accumulate an amount of money that you can use for your interactions with those health care providers.
We really think health savings accounts were kind of invented in Indiana.
We need to increase access to health insurance through Health Savings Accounts and high deductible policies, so individuals and families can purchase the insurance that's best for them and meets their specific needs.
We should expand health savings accounts so people can save in a tax-advantaged way for more routine healthcare needs.
I am pro-life. I am also supportive of health savings accounts, which ensure that women have the freedom to control their own health-care decisions, among numerous other reforms - like purchasing across state lines - to give Americans more control over their own health care.
Obamacare does not allow patients to buy insurance across state lines, which would dramatically increase competition and lower costs. It does not allow small business-associated health plans. It limits low-cost health savings accounts options.
My plan includes Dependent Care Savings Accounts to encourage savings and help families meet their needs for caring for both children and elders.
Who's going to manage (health savings accounts)?. It's not going to be your local accountant, it's going to be Fidelity.
We promote domestic savings by also things like the personal accounts associated with the president's Social Security initiative, which over time would generate more savings.
The bottom line is, what are we doing to Obamacare? We eviscerate the law in our bill, and then we do things like expanding health savings accounts, which give families real flexibility. We reform Medicaid.
Republican-led reforms would help Americans purchase their own coverage through the use of tax credits and expanded health savings accounts so that they can get a plan that works for them, not a one-size-fits-all plan forced on them by the government.
