Marion County: Why are we going on strike?
This strike is not only about ensuring the county covers the cost of our health care increases, it’s about fixing the skyrocketing cost of our healthcare and saying no to workers paying for the County’s mistakes in their health care plan. The bottom line is: Marion County forces workers to pay MORE for its health care and workers receive WORSE health care.
The average monthly employee premium cost across plans is $291.91 (+468% since 2019)
