Are you able to take your kids to the doctor when you need to? How’s your health coverage? How’s your prescription coverage? The reality is there are millions of people in this country who do not have health insurance. Kelly doesn’t have to worry about this becuase as a member of Seattle’s Local 699 Sprinkler Fitter Union she and her family receive great health benefits. For Kelly it isn’t just about the paycheck–it’s also about the peace of mind knowing that if she or her kids get sick she can take them to the doctor and it won’t break them or put them into bankruptcy. It’s knowing that she and her family can get the help they need when they need it thanks to the health benefits they receive from Local 699 is what really counts.
