The House of Representatives voted 248-179 today to pass a bill that would rewrite the health care law to redefine a full-time job as 40 hours per week, reversing the 30 hours per week definition prescribed by Obamacare. The concern is that current rules give employers an incentive to cut workers’ hours. The bill is given little chance of passing the Senate, and President Obama has pledged to veto it if it reaches his desk. |
