The current health care system is failing, and it hurts independent workers more than most.

For more than a decade, freelancers have successfully come together around a common purpose: affordable, portable health insurance. By pooling our resources and flexing some muscle, we created better plans with cheaper rates than individual freelancers could get by going it alone. We’ve also fought for health care reform, supporting a public plan and health insurance for not only independent workers, but all Americans.

We’re still working diligently to ensure that reform will expand freelancers’ options for affordable health insurance and protect their right in New York State to group together the way traditional employees do. Thanks for all you’ve done, and stay tuned.
