spending3 7,a7 ,for ,medicare1 this budget advances policies to put seniors1 not the ,federal ,government1 in control of their health care decisions4 ,those in or near retirement will see no changes1 while future retirees would be given a choice of private plans competing alongside the traditional fee-for-service ,medicare program4 ,medicare would provide a premium-support payment either to pay for or offset the premium of the plan chosen by the senior1 depending on the plan's cost4 ,the ,medicare premium-support payment would be adjusted so that the sick would receive higher payments if their conditions worsened2 lower-income seniors would receive additional assistance to help cover out-of-pocket costs2 and wealthier seniors would assume responsibility for a greater share of their premiums4 ,putting seniors in charge of how their health care dollars are spent will force providers to compete against each other on price and quality4 ,this market competition will act as a real check on widespread waste and skyrocketing health care costs4 7,b7 ,in keeping with a recommendation from the ,national ,commission on ,fiscal ,responsibility and ,reform1 this budget calls for

,,vi ,policy statements #fja4 ,policy statement on economic growth and job creation 7a7 ,findings ,the ,house finds the following3 7#a7 ,although the ,united ,states economy technically emerged from recession nearly five years ago1 the subsequent recovery has felt more like a malaise than a rebound4 ,real gross domestic product 7,,gdp7 growth over the past four years has averaged just over #b percent1 well below the #c percent trend rate of growth in the ,united ,states4 7#b7 ,the ,congressional ,budget ,office 7,,cbo7 did a study in late #bjab examining why the ,united ,states economy was growing so slowly after the recession4 ,they found1 among other things1 that ,united ,states economic output was growing at less than half of the typical rate exhibited during other recoveries since ,world ,war ,,ii4 ,,cbo said that about two-thirds of this growth gap was due to a pronounced sluggishness in the growth of potential ,,gdp--particularly in potential employment levels 7such as people leaving the labor force7 and the growth in productivity 7which is in turn related to lower capital investment74 7#c7 ,the prolonged economic sluggishness is particularly troubling given the amount of fiscal and monetary policy actions taken in recent years to cushion the depth of the downturn and to spark higher rates of growth and employment4 ,in addition to the large stimulus package passed in early #bjji1 many other initiatives have been taken to boost growth1 such as the new homebuyer tax credit and the cash for clunkers program4 ,these stimulus efforts may have led to various short term pops in activity but the economy and job market has since reverted back to a sub-par trend4 7#d7 ,the unemployment rate has declined in recent years1 from a peak of nearly #aj percent in #bjji-bjaj to #f4g percent in the latest month4 ,however1 a significant chunk of this decline has been due to people leaving the labor force 7and therefore no longer being counted as unemployed7 and not from a surge in employment4 ,the slow decline in the unemployment rate in recent years has occurred alongside a steep decline in the economy's labor force participation rate4 ,the participation rate stands at #fc4j percent1 close to the lowest level since #aigh4 ,the flipside of this is that over #ij million ,americans are now on the sidelines and not in the labor force1 representing a #aj million increase since early #bjji4 7#e7 ,real median household income declined for the fifth consecutive year in #bjab 7latest data available7 and1 at just over #ea1jjj1 is currently at its lowest level since #aiie4 ,weak wage and income growth as a result of a subpar labor market not only means lower tax revenue coming in to the ,treasury1 it also means higher government spending on income support programs4 7#f7 ,a stronger economy is vital to lowering deficit levels and eventually balancing the budget4 ,according to ,,cbo1 if annual real ,,gdp growth is just #j4a percentage point higher over the budget window1 deficits would be reduced by #caa billion4 7#g7 ,this budget resolution therefore embraces pro-growth policies1 such as fundamental tax reform1 that will help foster a stronger economy and more job creation4 7#h7 ,reining in government spending and lowering budget deficits has a positive long-term impact on the economy and the budget4 ,according to ,,cbo1 a significant deficit reduction package 7i4e4 #d trillion71 would boost longer-term economic output by #a4g percent4 ,their analysis concludes that deficit reduction creates long-term economic benefits because it increases the pool of national savings and boosts investment1 thereby raising economic growth and job creation4 7#i7 ,the greater economic output that stems from a large deficit reduction package would have a sizeable impact on the ,federal budget4 ,for instance1 higher output would lead to greater revenues through the increase in taxable incomes4 ,lower interest rates1 and a reduction in the stock of debt1 would lead to lower government spending on net interest expenses4 ,according to ,,cbo1 this dynamic would reduce unified budget deficits by an amount sufficient to produce a surplus in fiscal year #bjbd4 7b7 ,policy on economic growth and job creation ,it is the policy of this resolution to promote faster economic growth and job creation4 ,by putting the budget on a sustainable path1 this resolution ends the debt-fueled uncertainty holding back job creators4 ,reforms to the tax code to put ,american businesses and workers in a better position to compete and thrive in the #bast century global economy4 ,this resolution targets the regulatory red tape and cronyism that stack the deck in favor of special interests4 ,all of the reforms in this resolution serve as means to the larger end of growing the economy and expanding opportunity for all ,americans4 #fjb4 ,policy statement on tax reform 7a7 ,findings ,the ,house finds the following3 7#a7 ,a world-class tax system should be simple1 fair1 and promote 7rather than impede7 economic growth4 ,the ,united ,states tax code fails on all three counts - it is notoriously complex1 patently unfair1 and highly inefficient4 ,the tax code's complexity distorts decisions to work1 save1 and invest1 which leads to slower economic growth1 lower wages1 and less job creation4 7#b7 ,over the past decade alone1 there have been more than #d1djj changes to the tax code1 more than one per day4 ,many of the major changes over the years have involved carving out special preferences1 exclusions1 or deductions for various activities or groups4 ,these loopholes add up to more than #a trillion per year and make the code unfair1 inefficient1 and highly complex4 7#c7 ,in addition1 these tax preferences are disproportionately used by upper-income individuals4 7#d7 ,the large amount of tax preferences that pervade the code end up narrowing the tax base4 ,a narrow tax base1 in turn1 requires much higher tax rates to raise a given amount of revenue4 7#e7 ,it is estimated that ,american taxpayers end up spending #afj billion and roughly #f billion hours a year complying with the tax code - a waste of time and resources that could be used in more productive activities4 7#f7 ,standard economic theory shows that high marginal tax rates dampen the incentives to work1 save1 and invest1 which reduces economic output and job creation4 ,lower economic output1 in turn1 mutes the intended revenue gain from higher marginal tax rates4 7#g7 ,roughly half of ,united ,states active business income and half of private sector employment are derived from business entities 7such as partnerships1 ,s corporations1 and sole proprietorships7 that are taxed on a pass-through basis1 meaning the income flows through to the tax returns of the individual owners and is taxed at the individual rate structure rather than at the corporate rate4 ,small businesses1 in particular1 tend to choose this form for ,federal tax purposes1 and the top ,federal rate on such small business income reaches #dd4f percent4 ,for these reasons1 sound economic policy requires lowering marginal rates on these pass-through entities4 7#h7 ,the ,united ,states corporate income tax rate 7including ,federal1 ,state1 and local taxes7 sums to just over #ci percent1 the highest rate in the industrialized world4 ,tax rates this high suppress wages and discourage investment and job creation1 distort business activity1 and put ,american businesses at a competitive disadvantage with foreign competitors4 7#i7 ,by deterring potential investment1 the ,united ,states corporate tax restrains economic growth and job creation4 ,the ,united ,states tax rate differential with other countries also fosters a variety of complicated multinational corporate behaviors intended to avoid the tax1 which have the effect of moving the tax base offshore1 destroying ,american jobs1 and decreasing corporate revenue4 7#aj7 ,the worldwide structure of ,united ,states international taxation essentially taxes earnings of ,united ,states firms twice1 putting them at a significant competitive disadvantage with competitors with more competitive international tax systems4 7#aa7 ,reforming the ,united ,states tax code to a more competitive international system would boost the competitiveness of ,united ,states companies operating abroad and it would also greatly reduce tax avoidance4 7#ab7 ,the tax code imposes costs on ,american workers through lower wages1 on consumers in higher prices1 and on investors in diminished returns4 7#ac7 ,revenues have averaged about #ag4e percent of the economy throughout modern ,american history4 ,revenues rise above this level under current law to #ah4d percent of the economy by the end of the #aj-year budget window4 7#ad7 ,attempting to raise revenue through tax increases to meet out-of-control spending would damage the economy4 7#ae7 ,this resolution also rejects the idea of instituting a carbon tax in the ,united ,states1 which some have offered as a new source of revenue4 ,such a plan would damage the economy1 cost jobs1 and raise prices on ,american consumers4 7#af7 ,closing tax loopholes to fund spending does not constitute fundamental tax reform4 7#ag7 ,the goal of tax reform should be to curb or eliminate loopholes and use those savings to lower tax rates across the board--not to fund more wasteful ,government spending4 ,tax reform should be revenue-neutral and should not be an excuse to raise taxes on the ,american people4 ,washington has a spending problem1 not a revenue problem4 7b7 ,policy on tax reform ,it is the policy of this resolution that ,congress should enact legislation that provides for a comprehensive reform of the ,united ,states tax code to promote economic growth1 create ,american jobs1 increase wages1 and benefit ,american consumers1 investors1 and workers through revenue-neutral fundamental tax reform that-- 7#a7 simplifies the tax code to make it fairer to ,american families and businesses and reduces the amount of time and resources necessary to comply with tax laws2 7#b7 substantially lowers tax rates for individuals1 with a goal of achieving a top individual rate of #be percent and consolidating the current seven individual income tax brackets into two brackets with a first bracket of #aj percent2 7#c7 repeals the ,alternative ,minimum ,tax2 7#d7 reduces the corporate tax rate to #be percent2 and 7#e7 transitions the tax code to a more competitive system of international taxation4 #fjc4 ,policy statement on replacing the ,president's health care law 7a7 ,findings ,the ,house finds the following3 7#a7 ,the ,president's health care law has failed to reduce health care premiums as promised4 ,health care premiums were supposed to decline by #b1ejj4 ,instead1 according to the #bjac ,employer ,health ,benefits ,survey1 health care premiums have increased by #e percent for

the next ten years1 according to the ,president's own budget4 7#e7 ,the ,president's health care law should be repealed and replaced with reforms that make affordable and quality health care coverage available to all ,americans4 7b7 ,policy on ,replacing the ,president's health care law ,it is the policy of this resolution that the ,president's health care law must not only be repealed1 but also replaced1 for the following reasons3 7#a7 ,the ,president's health care law is a government-run system driving up health care costs and forcing ,americans to lose their health care coverage and should be replaced with a reformed health care system that gives patients and their doctors more choice and control over their health care4 7#b7 ,instead of a complex structure of subsidies1 firewalls1 mandates1 and penalties1 a reformed health care system should make health care coverage portable4 7#c7 ,instead of stifling innovation in health care technologies1 treatments1 and medications through ,federal mandates1 taxes1 and price controls1 a reformed health care system should encourage research and development4 7#d7 ,instead of instituting one-size-fits-all directives from ,federal bureaucracies such as the ,internal ,revenue ,service1 the ,department of ,health and ,human ,services1 and the ,independent ,payment ,advisory ,board1 individuals and families should be free to

while at the same time reaffirming that ,states should be free to implement the policies that best suit their needs4 7#f7 ,instead of using ,federal taxes1 mandates1 and bureaucracies to address those who have trouble securing health care coverage1 high risk pools should be established4 7#g7 ,instead of more than doubling spending on ,medicaid1 which is driving up ,federal debt and will eventually bankrupt ,state budgets1 ,medicaid spending should be brought under control and ,states should be given more flexibility to provide quality1 affordable care to those who are eligible4 7#h7 ,instead of

thirty coal units are being retired or converted as a result of ,,epa regulations4 ,combined with the de-facto prohibition on new plants1 these retirements and conversions may further increase the

cost-benefit analysis1 which also considers who will be most affected by regulations and whether the harm caused is outweighed by the potential harm prevented2 7#d7 ensures that regulations are subject to an open and transparent process1 rely on sound and publicly available scientific data1 and that the data relied upon for any particular regulation is provided to ,congress immediately upon request2 7#e7 frees the many commonsense energy and water projects currently trapped in complicated bureaucratic approval processes2 7#f7 maintains the benefits of landmark environmental1 health safety1 and other statutes while scaling back this administration's heavy-handed approach to regulation1 which has added #did billion in mostly ideological regulatory activity since #bjji1 much of
