Even if ACA itself may turn out be a tentatively benign, if not beneficial, policy for small business in the long run, the critical question remains: where do the two 2016 U.S. presidential candidates stand on the issue? Hillary Clinton's website claims that she will "be the small business president," vowing to defend the Affordable Care Act, strengthen its benefits, and minimize the law’s detriments to small business. Donald Trump on the other hand vehemently opposes the Affordable Care Act, stating that he will request a congressional repeal of the act on his first day in office.
Moving forward in American healthcare system reform, it is important to policymakers must consider the possibility of that the ACA’s effects on small businesses growing may grow more pronounced or remaining remain neutral. Regardless of the outcome of the election, the American population small businesses and economy requires their employees would benefit from a U.S. Congress and President who are willing and prepared to reap the potential benefits of the ACA - increased coverage for millions of Americans- and reform and while reforming the law to better protect against the potential detriments of rapidly rising premiums. Instead of introducing a preemptive policy to replace or eliminate the ACA, a more measured, nuanced, and methodical process should be followed, to would ensure that access to affordable and comprehensive health insurance coverage is available for all citizens.
