Many employees in the U.S. and U.K. still lack access to affordable financial protection benefits that help them face the unexpected challenges of illness or injury. Every dollar employers spend offering these benefits significantly reduces the need for government-funded support and the burden on taxpayers. We’re committed to partnering with policymakers and public and private institutions in both countries to find ways to help more people gain access to this critical protection. The positions disclosed in our policy statement form the basis of all political spending decisions.
