A report released Wednesday by the Federal Reserve says some employers are blaming Obamacare for layoffs and slow job growth. In the Fed's latest Beige Book -- a periodic look at the health of the economy, based on the Fed's interviews with company executives and other sources -- the Dallas and Richmond Feds reported that companies in their districts say they've curbed hiring or plan to lay off workers because of President Obama's health care reform law. "Employers in several Districts cited the unknown effects of the Affordable Care Act as reasons for planned layoffs and reluctance to hire more staff," the Beige Book said. The presidents of the Dallas and Richmond Feds, however, are outspoken conservatives.
