WASHINGTON – A small business owner from Seattle told White House officials Friday that providing health insurance for her employees is "a human thing" to do - even as rising healthcare costs and a sour economy are threatening to kill many small business owners' dreams.
"It's important to me that my employees have insurance," the coffee shop owner said Friday during a meeting with Nancy-Ann DeParle, director of the White House Office of Health Reform. The meeting was part of the administration's continuing series of White House Health Care Stakeholder Discussions.
