Fair Share Health Care?

By Laura Knoy on Thursday, February 23, 2006.

Commonly called the Wal-Mart bill, New Hampshire and 29 other states have tossed around the possibility of forcing larger employers to carry a greater responsibility in covering people who are uninsured with legislation commonly named fair share bills. New Hampshire’s fair share bill is now killed, but for uninsured Granite Staters, and businesses alike, the future of finding an affordable healthcare plan looks ominous. Laura's guests are Jim Roche, President and CEO of the New Hampshire Business and Industry Association and Jonathon Parker, National Director for Americans for Healthcare. We'll also hear from Jen Skalka, State House Reporter for the Baltimore Sun in Maryland and Marcia Moody, Democratic Representative from Newmarket and sponsor of New Hampshire's Fair Share Health Care legislation.
