Heidi Alexander: “I thank the Senator from Georgia for his leadership on the HELP…”

On the recordDecember 2, 2015

I thank the Senator from Georgia for his leadership on the HELP Committee on which all of us serve. One of the newer members of the HELP Committee brings a lot of expertise: Senator Cassidy from Louisiana. He wasn't there, at least not in the Senate, on the night Obamacare passed, but he has written forcefully about the fact that while premiums have been going up, something else was going down, and that is family incomes because of the 30-hour work week. Senator Cassidy had an article in Forbes magazine in 2014 that pointed out the impact of the 30-hour work week in Obamacare and how that was hurting working families.
