Los Angeles. The just concluded AFL-CIO convention reaffirmed its
commitment to a single payer health care system while demanding that the
Affordable Care Act (ACA) be fixed to protect Taft-Hartley (multiemployer)
plans, to end the excise tax, to make employers cover workers who average
20 hours a week, to require construction companies with 5 or more
employees to provide health care, to penalize companies who dump their
workers onto Medicaid, plus more.
