State Legislative Dinner - What Would You Ask For in Your Wish List

[Guest guyspat]

Imagine for a moment that you have invited a number of state legislators to a dinner where you will have their undivided attention. What would you ask them for? As we ask ourselves this question we find that most of the legislation we would want to modify exists at the Federal level. Fortunately, our trade association program is located in the state of Pennsylvania so as yet there are no burdensome state health care mandates to deal with. Therefore, apart from preventing some of the measures taken in other states (e.g. Maryland health care mandates or New York’s small group reform) we can find little to change. Hopefully some of you out there have issues that you would raise given an audience with legislators and can take the time to share this information with me.
