Buttigieg Not Offering Staffers Health Care Insurance

As he staffs up a national campaign, Mayor Pete Buttigieg isn’t providing health care coverage to any of his own campaign workers, an NBC News review of his campaign spending disclosures shows.

“Instead, Buttigieg is providing a monthly stipend to workers to buy insurance on their own through the Obamacare exchanges, his campaign said, with plans to offer health care in the future.”

“The practice stands in contrast to the other leading presidential candidates this year, as Democrats have made a point of aligning their internal practices with the policies and values they are emphasizing on the campaign trail.”
