Coalition Partners

Greetings, and thank you for your interest in the Small Business Coalition for Equitable Health Insurance. Formed by small businesses and small business representatives that are working toward a fair and equitable insurance market for all small companies, the Coalition has serious concerns about pending legislation on Association Health Plans (H.R. 660 and S. 545).

Though Association Health Plans (AHPs) has become a buzzword lately, we must be aware of the negative effects this legislation would have that are NOT mentioned. As small businesses and small business advocates, we understand the health insurance outlook is bleak, and realize that real solutions to these real problems will not always be easy, and they will not always be popular.

We appreciate your support and hope this Web site is informative and helpful to you.

The undersigned organizations oppose federal Association Health Plan legislation H.R. 660 and S. 545, and support a fair and equitable insurance market for all small companies.
