According to the Joint Committee on Taxation, ONLY about 7% of Americans – or close to 13 million individuals, families, and single parents – would actually receive the government subsidy for health insurance in 2019, when the new health law is in full effect. The remaining 93% of Americans – or roughly 163 million individuals, families, and single parents – would receive NO tax benefit under the bill.
