Consumer Advocates Oppose Health Exchange Nominees

By /
Led by red-shirted AARP Hawaii, about two dozen people rallied at the Capitol Friday (March 23) to oppose several administration nominees to the Hawaii Health Connector board.

The nominees include representatives of insurance companies, something that AARP says represents a serious conflict of interest.

The appointments are being heard Friday by Senate Commerce and Consumer Protection.
