USA, Chicago, IL, June 28- July 5, 2011. A Chicago soul food landmark for over 40 years, Edna's Restaurant in West Garfield Park had both a loyal customer base and a staff to match, weathering a temporary closure in 2010 after the death of its founder. Now called Ruby's Restaurant, new owner Henry Henderson and long-time manager Lillie Joiner debate their choices in trying to find health-care coverage for their employees. The Affordable Care Act already provides many such establishments with tax credits for health care coverage, and by 2014, a new marketplace will ensure Illinois small businesses have quality, affordable coverage options.
