I have an amendment at the desk. The Acting CHAIR. The Clerk will designate the amendment. The text of the amendment is as follows: Page 157, after line 2, add the following new section: Sec. 10002. None of the funds made available by this…

I hear from businesses all the time that have been talking about the devastating impacts this is having on their business, on their ability to hire new employees.
Our State study had just come out that said our State, Louisiana, would see a 56 percent increase in individual healthcare premiums on families.
Many businesses are being forced to reduce the number of hours that employees work because of the healthcare law.
