  • AHIP Testimony, House Tax Committee 07232012
    Good morning Mr. Chairman and Members. I am Phil Griffin, Minnesota counsel for America’s Health Insurance Plans – AHIP. Thank you for the opportunity to speak this morning about this important and very timely topic. AHIP is the national trade association representing the health insurance industry. AHIP’s members provide health and supplemental benefits to more than 200 million Americans through employer-sponsored coverage, the individual insurance market, and public programs including Medicare and Medicaid. AHIP advocates for public policies that expand access to affordable health care coverage to all Americans through a competitive marketplace that fosters choice, quality, and innovation. The Affordable Care Act brought us some good news, most notably that it will expand coverage to millions of Americans, a goal that has long been supported by health plans. But there is bad news, too. And the bad news is that unless some critical changes are made, the Affordable Care Act will be anything but affordable. More to the point, as a result of the premium tax and other costly provisions of ACA, you can count on significant increases in the cost of coverage not only in the individual and small group markets, but also for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries who receive their coverage through private insurers. A significant source of these rate increases is a new sales tax on health insurance which is the focus of my comments today. The amount of the tax will be $8 billion in 2014, increasing to $14.3 billion in 2018. The tax does not sunset and is indexed thereafter. The Congressional Joint Committee on Taxation estimates that the premium tax will exceed $100 billion over the next ten years.

  • Editor's Corner November 3, 2010 by Peter Coyle
    Editor's Corner November 3, 2010 by Peter Coyle Minnesota's political landscape has been altered very dramatically based on yesterday's election results, though not exactly in the manner most pundits had expected. As of this writing, Mark Dayton holds a narrow lead (less than 1 percent) over Tom Emmer in the race for governor of Minnesota. More dramatic is the fact that Republicans handily won control of both the House and Senate in Minnesota. Republicans in the Minnesota legislature will ride a roller-coaster of emotions over the next day or two, but very quickly they will need to come to grips with the reality that while their political fortunes have changed, the dire economic conditions confronting the state and nation have not. It remains necessary to resolve a nearly $6 billion state budget deficit for the next biennium; regardless of the outcome in the governor's race, this financial quagmire will need to be resolved with no tax increases and no help from their Democrat counterparts. We will be watching very closely to see who emerges as leaders of the various party caucuses in the House and Senate; it will be especially interesting to see who emerges as chairs of the multiple committees in the House and Senate. The results in Minnesota were mirrored to a great extent by the national elections in which Republicans regained control of the House of Representatives after ceding it to the Democrats four years ago. While control of the Senate remains with the Democrats, Republicans picked up at least 6 seats.

  • Pathways to Congress: Precongressional Careers and Congressional Behavior
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship Repository PATHWAYS TO CONGRESS: PRECONGRESSIONAL CAREERS AND CONGRESSIONAL BEHAVIOR BY KATHERINE A. FRANCIS DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Tracy Sulkin, Chair and Director of Research Professor William Bernhard Professor Jeffery Mondak Assistant Professor Gisela Sin ABSTRACT Members of Congress have a variety of career experiences before Congress, non-political and political. In this dissertation, I bring together interdisciplinary strands of research on careers and occupational behavior to compare how MCs from different career backgrounds act in the U.S. House of Representatives. I argue that career experiences can provide relevant skills and insights that members in their first and second terms use to adjust to being Representatives. Through a large-scale analysis of members serving in the 101st-112th Congresses (1989-2012), I find that precongressional career experiences have multiple connections to members’ decisions. Career experiences relate to the contents of members’ legislative agendas, their orientation toward legislative activities and constituent outreach, and their partisan loyalty. Members with legislative and executive backgrounds are more active in the legislative process and more successful in seeing their bills become law. MCs with different career experiences also craft different legislative agendas – the number and types of bills on which they take legislative action. New MCs significantly introduce and cosponsor a greater number of bills on policy topics that relate to their past experience, for instance – medical doctors introducing health bills.

    th The New Members of the 113 Congress DECEMBER 14, 2012 The following is an analysis of the biographies and records of 96 newly-elected members of the 113th Congress, with a special emphasis on issues of particular interest. This information is based on publicly available information, as well as candidates’ campaign websites. Democrats will have made a net gain of eight seats in the U.S. House of Representatives with 49 of them Democrats and 35 Republicans. As of now, the new balance of power comes to 234 Republicans and 200 Democrats. Interestingly, two new House seats recently became available as Representatives Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-IL) and Jo Ann Emerson (R-MO) resigned from Congress since the November 8th election. In the Senate, there will be 12 new Members, with the Democrats, surprisingly picking up two seats, bringing their total majority to 54. In addition, a total of 20 women will be serving in the 113th Congress, which is the highest number to ever have served in this chamber.
