To this end, the SVP is calling for a corresponding amendment to the tax law that also includes health insurance premiums in the deductions. This should reduce the burden on all taxpayers. Among others, the middle class, which does not receive a premium reduction, and to a lesser extent families entitled to reductions, should be able to benefit from this, the party wrote in a press release.
