Congressman Paul has officially introduced his legislation to repeal the federal health insurance mandate. The bill is titled “End the Mandate” and the bill number is HR 4995. The bill’s text will be available shortly.
In a recent Fox News interview Ron Paul described his bill as follows
Ron Paul: “I want to get rid of one item to concentrate on, because I think it’s the worst part. And that is the mandate saying that you don’t have a choice anymore. They’re driving everybody into the system. […] I want to key in on the one issue, to legalize freedom of choice, legalize the private option without taking on the whole mess that’s been created. […] In a free society you have to at least allow people the freedom to opt out of a compulsory system that is imposed on you by government.”
