Lawmakers Consider Dramatic COBRA Expansion
National Underwriter Life & Health Magazine 
Jan. 23, 2009
Excerpt: The House Ways and Means Committee [January 22, 2009] marked up a bill that could subsidize the cost of continuing group health coverage for laid-off workers and cut workers' share of the premiums to 35%. Ways and Means members voted 24-13 to approve the bill, H.R. 598, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Title III of the bill is the Health Insurance Assistance for the Unemployed Act of 2009. House leaders will combine H.R. 598 with other bills to create H.R. 1, a new American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and bring the bill up for a vote on the floor next week, committee leaders say.
