From HuffPo

NEW YORK — The owner of Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants is putting more workers on part-time status in a test aimed at limiting costs from President Barack Obama's health care law.

Tsk - tsk
Darden Restaurants - member of the American Legisative Exchange Council  ... 
I wonder which task force they worked on?
I wonder if they helped write the ALEC publication "A Legislators Guide to Repealing Obamacare"?

NOT THIS YEAR

For the second straight year that truth has once again been confirmed with FORTUNE magazine’s recognition of Darden as one of the "100 Best Companies to Work For" in America.

NOT THIS YEAR

I wonder if Mr. Bob McAdams
