Summary of Bill HRES 379

Bill 115 H.Res. 379 is a resolution in the US Congress that sets the rules for considering two bills related to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The first bill, H.R. 2372, aims to clarify the rules regarding veteran health insurance and eligibility for the premium tax credit. This bill seeks to ensure that veterans have access to the premium tax credit for their health insurance.

The second bill, H.R. 2579, proposes to amend the Internal Revenue Code to allow the premium tax credit for unsubsidized COBRA continuation coverage.

This bill would make it easier for individuals to afford COBRA coverage by providing them with the premium tax credit.

Overall, these bills aim to make health insurance more affordable for veterans and individuals who are transitioning between jobs. The resolution, H.Res. 379, sets the stage for the consideration of these important pieces of legislation in the US Congress.
