AFL-CIO nearing formal criticism
of ObamaCare
The Hill – Kevin Bogardus –

LOS ANGELES — Unions, after
a contentious and difficult process, are on the cusp of issuing formal
criticism of ObamaCare at the AFL-CIO convention.
The AFL-CIO Executive
Council is expected to consider a resolution, subject to fierce internal
debate, that will call for changes to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) — setting
up a potential floor vote this Wednesday before the convention closes.
Frustration has grown within labor as the Obama administration has failed to
offer a fix to temper union worries over the law.
A copy of the draft
resolution, obtained by The Hill, praises aspects of ObamaCare and states that
the AFL-CIO supports the law’s goal of providing healthcare coverage for all.
But the four-page document lays out a laundry list of complaints against
ObamaCare — at times taking aim at the administration.
