HARDI has joined an association telling the president to scrap current health care
reform proposals in favor of other ideas.
The Heating, Airconditioning
and Refrigeration Distributors International is a part of the 248-member umbrella
organization the StartOver coalition that signed a Feb. 22 letter to President
Barack Obama asking him to abandon the health care reform bills that passed the U.S. House
and Senate last year.
The coalition, which also
includes the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Associated Builders and Contractors, and the Associated General
Contractors, called the current approaches to health care reform “punitive” on businesses and
said they will likely harm job-creation efforts.
Obama has made passing
some version of health care reform in the next few weeks his top domestic
priority.
