Alabama: Schools Face Shortage of Substitute Teachers Due to ObamaCare

Alabama Schools Face Shortage Of Substitute Teachers Due To Obamacare (Washington Free Beacon)

Finding qualified substitute teachers is always a tough task for local schools, but that job may become even tougher under Obamacare, WHNT-AL reports.

The Affordable Care Act stipulates that any employee working over 30 hours a week is considered full-time and must be provided health insurance. Marshall County Superintendent Tim Nabors notes that his schools can’t afford to provide health coverage to its substitutes, and may well face a shortage given the new hour restrictions.
