these tough economic times, the combination of rising health care costs
and lower revenues has made it increasingly difficult for private
companies, unions, nonprofits, religious organizations, and state and

employers who are committed to maintaining adequate benefits for their
workers and retirees in spite of these challenges." Secretary of Labor
