New Jersey Working Families Statement on Horizon $275 Million

Relief and Investment Plan

Newark- In response to Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey announcement that it will return $150 million to customers and $125 million in drug treatment, mental health and primary care access expansion, Analilia Mejia, Executive Director of New Jersey Working Families Alliance released the following statement:

“Since the passage of the massive GOP Tax Plan, we have seen countless corporations funnel their savings to shareholders and wealthy executives. It is refreshing to see a corporation, such as Horizon, place New Jersey working families before profits by truly passing on savings to working families and investing in much needed services we all benefit from.”
