WASHINGTON — Former President Barack Obama will return to the White House Tuesday for the first time since leaving office to celebrate the 12th anniversary of his landmark health care law, which President Joe Biden is planning to bolster with two new actions.
Biden, who as Obama's vice president famously celebrated the Affordable Care Act's passage as a "big f—ing deal," will sign an executive order to make health care more accessible and affordable, according to a senior administration official.
Meanwhile, the Treasury Department will introduce a regulation designed to reduce premiums required to cover spouses and dependents on employer-based plans, closing a loophole in the law.
