A House bill to delay Obamacare’s individual mandate would save $35 billion dollars, according to the Congressional Office. In July, the House passed H.R. 2668, which would delay the application of the individual health insurance mandate and the employer health insurance mandate for one year. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and the Joint Committee on Taxation estimate that enacting H.R. 2668 would reduce federal deficits by roughly $36 billion from 2014 to 2018 and by roughly $35 billion from 2014 to 2023.
