Letter: Bad employer plans are not the fault of ACA

I write regarding Thomas Burr's article on March 14 about a supposed "victim" of the ACA who met with Donald Trump. The article states the "victim's" family "gets insurance through Box Elder County because of his elected position."

That's not the ACA, that's an employer plan! He can't blame the ACA for his shoddy employer plan. Shame on the reporter for either not knowing this or for failing to point it out.

There are enough lies circulating about the ACA, and its heartless replacement, the AHCA. You can do better, Tribune.
