I did. Just called the HR Mnager at [famous company], she iterated that it's all or none. Her employer pays all for management and the employee only for the union members. Family coverage at company expense was a give-back in the last negotiation. Union members may pay for all or none of their famoily, but not part. I'll check with Hockensmith tomorrow and Tri-care, my insuror, tomorrow. This is an ATTACK angle. He didn't lie; he just didn't do his job because it was too much trouble. He's vulnerable here. Time for tame reporter to push the question. If he fails to answer send copies to other reporters so refusal is matter of record. No choice? No democracy!

Next time you talk with your health insurance agent, ask him how much it would cut your premium if you drop your children from health insurance. Ask him if you can drop your kids from health insurance, but keep your spouse and yourself on the policy. I think you will find that there is nothing to the Mitch and Bush excuse for killing the expansion of SCHIP and KCHIP.
