Colorado business leaders pan public health option, worker protections bills Derek Draplin, The Center Square © Provided by Washington Examiner Colorado business leaders on Monday panned a pair of Democratic-backed bills in the Legislature they say will harm the state’s small businesses. The National Federation of Independent Business-Colorado hosted a news conference Monday along with local chambers of commerce, small business owners, and Republican House Minority Leader Rep. Hugh McKean, R-Loveland, to discuss Senate Bill 176 and House Bill 1232. SB 176, known as the Protecting Opportunities And Workers Act (POWR) Act, seeks to expand protections for workers and would allow claims to be taken directly to a county or district court. The bill also would expand protections to contractors, interns and volunteers.

EDITORIAL: Don t let state authorities control our health care

Critics say socialized medicine could lead to rationing. The less filtered doomsayers, think former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, fear death panels would make life-and-death decisions in a system commanded by the government. Anyone quick to dispense with these warnings should consider Colorado House Bill 1232, working its way through the legislature and set for a committee hearing on Wednesday. HB-1232 is the public option for health care advocated by leading Democrats, including Gov. Jared Polis. Socialized health care advocates who roll their eyes at warnings of rationing and death panels are technically correct. No one  even self-described socialists wants a law establishing rationing or death panels.
