Make amendments to the ACA that will exempt college students from the full-time worker insurance restriction.

Created by N.O. on June 03, 2014

College students around the nation are suffering due to universities setting the maximum amount of hours that a student is able to work at 28 hours/week per the Affordable Care Act. For those of us students who work for our respective college/universities in order to lower the cost of education; we are not able to maximize our potential earnings because the universities do not want to offer health insurance to students. Could you please remove this regulation inside of the Affordable Care Act, or allow all student workers to become exempt like the government exempted work-study. For students who are working to pay all of tuition, we are not able to at a 28 hour/week restriction. This hinders and limits students from being able to receive a higher education. Please exempt student-workers.
