Legislative Agenda

This bill would eliminate the pay disparity that exists between the salaries of human services workers employed by community-based human service providers and state employees holding similar job titles who perform similar work.

This legislation would create a student loan repayment program for low-paid, full-time human service workers.

This bill would enable the Providers’ Council to aggregate members of any size for the purposes of procuring health insurance products at more favorable rates, provided those products meet minimum creditable coverage requirements.

This bill would exempt community-based, nonprofit human services organizations — which care for vulnerable residents on behalf of the Commonwealth and are primarily funded by state contracts — from making Employer Medical Assistance Contribution Supplemental payments.
