In the near future, I will be introducing legislation that grants a tax credit to employers who contribute towards paying their employees’ health insurance premiums.
 
Currently, health insurance is a heavy cost both for employees and for businesses, namely small businesses. This legislation seeks to ease the burden of health insurance premiums by rewarding businesses who shoulder some of the cost. This policy will strengthen small businesses within the Commonwealth, making them more competitive with larger franchises, and will enable more access to health care for Pennsylvania workers.
 
I hope you will join me in cosponsoring this legislation.
