The New Health Care Law

On March 23, 2010 the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law. The Virginia Interfaith Center was on the front lines of the push for reform. But what does it mean for Virginians and how can Virginia's faith communities prepare for the most significant social reforms since the New Deal?

Our team of analysts have researcehd and assembed a comprehensive report of key elements of reform and written a brief congregational resource to help the faith community figure out how those within their communities will benefit and how the new law will help fulfill the mission to help the most vulnerable among us.

Senator Whipple, the Center's 2006 Legislator of the Year, explains in this video how the 2008 Payday Lending reform was supposed to work.....before the payday lenders realized they could mis-use the same open-ended credit statute that Car Title lenders use to charge triple digit interest.  It will be interesting to see, given how happy Senator Whipple is with the outcome of the 2008 debate, if Senate democrats will actually take leadership in ending predatory lending in Virginia.
