Report: 2.4 Million Workers Lose Employer-Provided Health Insurance
-------------------------------------------------------------------



The Center for American Progress is estimating 2.4 million workers have
lost the health coverage their jobs provided since the start of the
recession. More than 320,000 Americans lost their employer-provided
health insurance in March alone, which amounts to over 10,000 workers a
day.
