I think it's a great idea to extend health benefits to temporary firefighters. However, it should not just cover firefighters, but rather ALL temporary Federal employees.
Also, I have heard that with this coverage, it may still put a great financial burden on the temporary employee during the months he/she is not working. There needs to be some way to address this issue so the employee would have to pay the same amount throughout the year, rather than more during the months he/she is not working.
