President's Health Care Plan and the Polls
March 10, 2010

President Barack Obama's message of late on health care reform has been that his plan was not communicated adequately. But the more he talks, the less popular it becomes.

 Small Business Health Care Reform


SBE Council continues to fight for health reform -- specifically, measures that will reduce costs and create greater choices for entrepreneurs.  As anticipated, there were no bipartisan breakthroughs at President Obama's health summit on February 25.  Rather, it looks like the Democrat leadership will go the "reconciliation" route (even though they lack the votes in the House). We continue to push for a modest but meaningful reform bill that produces positive results for small business. Thank you for continuing to sign our "Not On Our Backs" petition. Stay tuned for Action Alerts!

Please support SBE Council in its fight for legislation to make health insurance more affordable for small business owners and entrepreneurs.  Contribute here.

 Big Labor: Influence Far Exceeds Role in Economy


Are you perplexed by the continued political influence of labor unions? Given the fact that labor unions are becoming less and less relevant to the private sector economy with each passing year why do political leaders care what they think? It's all about big money and ideology.
