Should I quietly stop accepting state checks at my business or should I attempt to hold my state government accountable?

That within the last couple of years the administration approved a bill that increased the pay for childcare (?) and home health care (?) workers, but set aside a certain amount for union dues.

So yes, they did it, and yes, it's awful.

(I don't remember the specifics and didn't bother to look them up before posting, hence the question marks, but it did happen)

In home child care providers,daycare's, receive a percent of two dollars per hour based on each families individual need. I have cared for children fifteen years and the average equals one dollar and ninty cents per hour.

The State co-pay's an hourly rate direct to the provider, the parent must pay the balance. In home child care providers,daycare's, receive a percent of two dollars per hour based on each families individual need. I have cared for children fifteen years and the average equals one dollar and ninty cents per hour. I charge $3.75 per hour; thus the state would reinburse $1.90 per hour and the parent would reinburse 1.85 per hour of care provided.

Yes the State is collecting the union dues,1.15%. by sherrywantsanisland, 02/14/2009 12:05:29 AM EST (none / 0)
