Background: In September, Senators Heller and Heinrich introduced S. 2045, which fully repeals the Affordable Care Acts Cadillac tax. The two Senators introduced the Senate companion to Congressman Joe Courtneys (D-CT02) House legislation. Beginning in 2018, the Cadillac tax will tax employers whose health insurance plans cost more than $10,200 a year for individuals and $27,500 a year for families at 40 percent of the cost above those limits. In Nevada alone, 1.3 million workers who have employer-sponsored health insurance plans will be hit by this tax. Last week, Senator Heller filed an amendment to fully repeal the Cadillac tax. This amendment reflects the same goal as S. 2045 and passed the Senate by a vote of 90-10. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
