CAMPAIGN PROMISE KEPT!

Keeping a major campaign promise, Gov. John Lynch and a bipartisan coalition of state senators have presented a proposal to repeal SB 110, providing much-needed help to New Hampshires small businesses.

The new health insurance law commonly known as SB 110, dramatically increased insurance premiums for many of our small businesses across New Hampshire, and allowed health insurance companies to discriminate against sick workers and against companies in certain regions of the state, particularly the North Country and the Seacoast.

Gov. Lynch and the eight Democratic state Senators led by Sen. Maggie Hassan joined recently with five Republican state Senators to put forward a proposal that will prohibit insurance companies from discriminating against sick workers or against companies in certain regions of the state.

This proposal means that help is on the way for small businesses suffering under the escalating costs of health insurance.
