Workers on strike or locked out would keep their health insurance under new rules.
This bill would make sure employees don't lose their group health insurance if their employer locks them out or if they go on a lawful strike. It would also set up fines for companies that illegally end or change this coverage, protecting thousands of workers and their families.
Today, federal law does not explicitly stop employers from ending or changing employee group health plan coverage during a lock-out or a lawful strike. This bill would make such actions illegal and establish civil penalties for employers who violate these rules. Fines could reach up to $75,000 for lock-out violations and $50,000 for strike violations, with the potential to double to $150,000 or $100,000 respectively for repeat offenses with serious harm.
