10/30/09: Health Care Reform for the Arts
Both the House and the Senate have been considering various pieces of health care reform legislation. TCG urges you to contact your Senator or Member in the House of Representatives asking that the final health care reform bill address the needs of the 13 million Americans employed in the nonprofit sector. Learn more about incentives under consideration for smaller employers to provide health coverage and what you can do to help ensure that any health care reform measures provide incentives to nonprofit employers that are equivalent to those provided to for-profit employers.
ACTION: TCG urges you to convey to your elected officials the importance of health care reform that makes affordable health insurance available to all artists, arts administrators, artisans and technicians. Individuals comprise a large sector in the theatre field, and access to affordable health coverage impacts the overall health of the field. TCG would like to make sure our members are informed and engaged in the health care reform debate as it has implications for the theatres and individuals in our field.
