If you were making minimum wage and you got your hours cut because of health insurance, you might be in favor of this bill.

Wonder what will happen when china (and others) stop loaning us money aka buying government bonds to pay for all the freebies? Will the welfare dependant masses riot in the street demanding their food stamps, section 8 housing and free healthcare be reinstated?

House bill narrows health law definition offull-time work

ByALAN FRAM

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — 

    The Republican-led House has approved abill reducing the number of workers who must be offered employer-providedhealth insurance under President Barack Obama's healthcare law.

    Despite a White House threat that Obamawould veto the legislation, the House approved the measure Thursday 252-172.That was short of the two-thirds margin that would be needed to override aveto.

    The 2010 law defines full-time workers whomust be offered health coverage as those working at least 30 hours weekly.

TheRepublican bill would boost that threshold to 40 hours. They say the lowerlevel is putting pressure on companies and forcing many of them to reduceworkers' hours to save money.

    Democrats say a 40-hour standard would putmany more workers at risk.

    The Senate hasn't yet considered thelegislation.
