This bill is an attempt to transfer the burden of health insurance costs from the city to the city workers by increasing the contributions workers must pay. This means another cut in the wages of public sector workers who have already suffered severe cuts in staff and an increase in their case loads.

On August 11, 2010, over a hundred San Francisco city workers and their families joined a protest in Pacific Heights at Billionaire Michael Moritz's fundraiser for San Francisco Public Defender Jeff Adachi and his ballot initiative proposition B. There are 18 billionaires in San Francisco that mostly reside in Pacific Heights. Michael Moritz is one of these and he gave $245,000 to get this initiative on the ballot. This initiative will mean wage cuts for thousands of San Francisco public workers including teachers and retired workers. For additional footage go to SF Billionaires Attack San Francisco City Workers
