More Oregonians signing up for health coverage at state Marketplace
SALEM, Ore. (KTVZ) – People in Oregon are enrolling in health coverage at a much higher rate than this time last year. As of April 30, more than 10,100 people in Oregon have newly enrolled in health coverage through the Marketplace, an increase of 31 percent over people who enrolled during this time last year and 80 percent more than enrolled during the same period in 2019.
Higher enrollment in the Marketplace from Feb. 15 through April 30 is likely due to the COVID-19 special enrollment period, which is open to anyone who needs health coverage and is eligible to shop through HealthCare.gov. This special enrollment period continues through Aug. 15, 2021.

New York City sued Chipotle Mexican Grill chains for violating labor, scheduling and sick leave laws, which have affected all of Chipotle’s New York City employees.
The Department of Consumer and Worker Protection sued Chipotle for several violations of the Fair Workweek Law, which mandates that workers be given 14 day advance notice of schedules or else they must receive extra pay. Additionally, workers have to have certain time allotted for breaks during shifts.
“Since we first filed our case against Chipotle we have unfortunately learned that those initial charges were just the tip of the iceberg,” Department Commissioner Lorelei Salas said, according to Business Insider.
