Who gets cheap health insurance? The Florida Legislature
St. Petersblog, 4/8

Republicans pushing for changes in the state’s health insurance program for its employees have complained the state may be spending too much money for a program that is out of line with what private companies offer. And they ought to know, Christine Jordan Sexton writes in the Florida Tribune.

At a time when the GOP-controlled Legislature is complaining about health insurance mandates from the federal government, nearly every state legislator is covered by the state under a plan that right now costs no more than $360 a year for family coverage and only $100 a year for individual coverage. All 40 state senators are enrolled in the state’s health insurance plan as are 112 members of the Florida House according to information obtained by the Florida Tribune. 39 state senators and 115 House members also have dental insurance.
