On Wednesday, January 11, Karen Kallay joined progressives from all over Virginia in speaking out on issues facing the 2012 Virginia General Assembly. Karen is a member of the Virginia Organizing Health Care Committee and addressed the crowd on setting up a Virginia Health Benefits Exchange.

A health benefit exchange is a marketplace that will provide consumers who cannot get health insurance at work a place to access and purchase affordable and comprehensive coverage, providing subsidies for low- and middle-income individuals and families to help make coverage more affordable.
