10/8/2008: Senators Propose Health Insurance Premium Costs Disclosure Bill (Congressional Quarterly Inc.)
Excerpt: "A group of bipartisan senators proposed legislation Tuesday that would compel employers to tell employees what their health insurance costs -- a step, the senators said, toward getting a handle on the spiraling cost of medical care. The senators said in a statement that they were seeking public comment on the proposal. With Congress adjourned and unlikely to return for any significant amount of time this year, the legislation won't be seriously debated until next year."
