During the July 16th Ways and Means Committee Markup of H.R. 3200 (Speaker Pelosis health care bill), Congressman Davis offered an amendment to protect small businesses from punitive tax burdens in the bill. H.R. 3200 requires employers to either offer plans that meet government mandates or pay an 8% tax on payroll. In the underlying bill, if an employee rejects the employer provided plan, for any reason, the employer still must pay an 8% tax on the value of that employees wages to the Health Information Exchange. Congressman Davis amendment would have eliminated this 8% tax if the employer offers a plan meeting the government mandates. The amendment was defeated, 17-24.
