| Description | HARTFORD — Standing across from the Wal-Mart on Flatbush Avenue, Mayor John DeStefano Jr. challenged the marketing giant Wednesday to offer affordable health care plans to keep its employees off state assistance.
DeStefano, who is seeking the Democratic Party’s nomination for governor in an August primary, said 800 Wal-Mart workers and 1,600 of their dependents used the state’s HUSKY plan (Healthcare for Uninsured Kids and Youths) in 2004 for a cost of $5.6 million to taxpayers. |
