• Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act; Establishment of Exchanges and Qualified Health Plans; Exchange Standards for Employers

This final rule will implement the new Affordable Insurance Exchanges (``Exchanges''), consistent with title I of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, referred to collectively as the Affordable Care Act. The Exchanges will provide competitive marketplaces for individuals and small employers to directly compare available private health insurance options on the basis of price, quality, and other factors. The Exchanges, which will become operational by January 1, 2014, will help enhance competition in the health insurance market, improve choice of affordable health insurance, and give small businesses the same purchasing clout as large businesses.

• Yorke & Curtis Flies High at Awards Ceremony for Pacific Northwest Chapter of Abc

Yorke & Curtis swept the Pacific Northwest chapter of the Associated Builders and Contractors excellence awards ceremony Thursday night, winning the coveted eagle award and two other honors. The general contractor was one of eight open-shop companies receiving excellence awards in 13 categories for projects and programs completed or carried out in 2007. Competition was stiff for the building industry association's annual awards, chosen from a crop of projects completed at the peak of the commercial construction market, John Killin, ABC's president, said. And the industry outlook remains strong over the next 18 months he said.

WASHINGTON, March 16, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In testimony delivered today on Capitol Hill, Associated Builders and Contractors' (ABC) General Counsel Maurice Baskin, a partner with Venable, L.L.P., stated that recent administration efforts to make project labor agreements (PLAs) part of the federal procurement process are "threatening to violate the longstanding Congressional mandate of full and open competition in federal procurement -- at taxpayers' expense." Baskin's remarks were given during a hearing on the impact of the administration's pro-PLA policy on construction job creation and the efficient use of taxpayer dollars held by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform's Subcommittee on Regulatory Affairs, Stimulus Oversight and Government Spending.
