"We are strong supporters of affordable health care for all Americans." said the Unions. "Sadly however, the promise made to us is under major threat. Unintended consequences of the ACA are poised to shatter not only our hard-earned health benefits, but destroy the foundation of the 40-hour workweek."
How come? Well each week, employers have been dropping 1000's of low paid workers below 30 hours per week - the cut off number of hours whereby employers don't now need to buy health insurance. These new "part time" workers used to have health insurance but now don't have any. There are now over 200,000 low paid workers who used to have health insurance and they are just the beginning of a coming avalanche unless something is done. But as the politicians who voted in Obamacare have opted OUT of Obamacare, don't be expecting anything to happen soon!
