3. Look on the pages below

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act

or

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_Care_and_Education_Reconciliation_Act_of_2010

or

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affordable_Health_Care_for_America_Act


Maybe there's a link on one of those pages for the actual document

4. This is the text form. PDF is also available. Public Law 111-148

http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/PLAW-111publ148/html/PLAW-111publ148.htm

Remember, it's a 3,000+ page document.

5. BTW there's the original PPACA bill, the reconciliation 'fix' bill, and then there's

pages of rules springing from the first 2 that are law from HHS and IRS.

(the reconciliation fix bill was called the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act).

6. You will also need to be prepared to

reference the laws that are modified by the PPACA - much of what you will read won't make sense until you see the sections of the other laws that it refers to.

7. How would one "need" to "give it to a righty"

You have been hired as a research assistant to this person?

They are pointing a gun at you?

8. If you have to ask, you just wouldn't understand. nt
