Representative X:As healthcare legislation continues to be debated in the House and Senate, I would like to express my support for the continuation of one, significant policy that was instituted under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), namely the idea that young people under the age of 26 should be permitted to remain on their family's health insurance policies. The current generation of young people is graduating with more college debt than ever before and many new graduates are forced to take jobs that do not offer full benefits. The rise of freelance employment also means that many young persons may be forced to forgo jobs with health insurance.
Buying independent insurance is a significant cost, even though ensuring that young and healthy people are in the health insurance risk pool is necessary to keep overall healthcare costs low. Preventative early care can also reduce the need for more costly secondary are tertiary care for patients in the future. Thus, for both young people's own financial security and health as well as for society, maintaining this policy can and will continue to convey significant societal benefits.
Yours truly,
X

Ethnic Social Groups. Issues Related to Ethnic Social Groups In this paper we have discussed the issues African-Americans face in terms of employment, social stability and their identity as a separate ethnic community in the United States. Sociological studies suggest that "black people" or "African-Americans" have always had little choice in the racial label given to them. Research and literature on this subject states that unlike some racial/ethnic identities, the "black identity"
Education Law Policy and Social Justice Mother Tongue Instruction The population of students receiving their instruction in another language apart from their mother tongue is increasing as a consequence of the increased migration. Indeed, as Bingol (2012) points out, “migration and language are clearly linked issues…. because the language of instruction in the schools is different from the language spoken at home, some arrangements must be done for these children in
