ObamaCare Hits AARP Employees in the Pocket
The big push from AARP was crucial to finally passing ObamaCare. Ironically, the giant seniors’ organization has now informed AARP employees that provisions of the legislation will drive up the worker’s out of pocket cost.
The AP reports that in order to avoid the penalty tax on “Cadillac” policies, AARP will impose higher employee contribution costs on health insurance policies for their workers.
In a shocking admission that supporting Obama’s big government agenda was more important to AARP leadership than their own workers, David Certner, legislative affairs director for AARP said, “The impact on AARP employees is not a factor at all in our policy making.” How’s that for being thrown under the bus by the boss?
