Supreme Court rules in New York’s favor
Last week, the Supreme Court made headlines by deciding to uphold the health care reform bill. This decision represents a major win for New York and its residents.
Health care reform will benefit New Yorkers from all walks of life. Last year, for example, nearly 250,000 New York senior citizens were victimized by a gap in coverage under Medicare Part D. Thanks to the new legislation, every single senior who reaches this donut hole will receive a one-time $250 rebate check, starting this year.
Just as the bill aids seniors, so will it provide for young people. Since its passage, this legislation has allowed individuals under 26 to remain under their parents coverage, even after finishing school.
