Upcoming HTA Sponsored Informational Sessions:

NYSUT Benefits Meeting - Monday, January 9th, 2017 at 4pm at the CC in Room 208 

*A NYSUT Benefits representative will explain many of the benefits that are available to NYSUT members such as: discounts on car rentals, travel and online shopping. Some other available benefits are insurance programs, estate planning, legal and financial services. 

The Affordable Care Act, ACA, has been written about, talked about, implemented for several years and STILL there are myths and misinformation about it. Its full name was THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT.  It was designed specifically to protect patients. And now, as Obama leaves office, it is about to be repealed without a replacement ready to take its place.

Of course, there is the upcoming inauguration.... but there is more as the 115^th Congress prepares to do 'the people's work'.  After welcoming new members, swearing in ceremonies and orientations the House of Representatives (HR) thought the most important things to do were:

The NH Senate Commerce Committee will be hearing a Right to Work (for less) bill, Senate Bill 11, on Tuesday, January 10th at 1pm. The hearing will be held at the NH State House in Representatives Hall. This bill has been scheduled quickly and has been cited as a priority by Governor Chris Sununu and the GOP majority.

We know this is wrong for NH and will hurt NH’s economy and working families. This bill has been defeated repeatedly for thirty years and nothing has changed to justify this legislation.  This a blatant attempt to weaken the voice of working familes and unions because the proponents know that when unions are strong all workers have highers wages not just union workers.

 Let's join union members and allies from across NH and stand together to help defeat this destructive legislation.
