AFL-CIO President Trumka Tell Big Insurance: Blocking Health Care Reform Is a Crime

At a rally outside the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Washington, DC where the front group for the nations biggest insurance companies, the Americas Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) is meeting, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka laid it on the line, telling the crowd: "The insurance companies wont stop unless we stop them—and we do that by passing health care reform legislation. So today were here to put the insurance companies on notice: We will not allow you and your lobbyists to bully Congress into not acting. Not on health care or any of the issues important to Americas working families."
