LOS ANGELES (
MarketWatch) -- The White House has approved a deal that
will exempt members of Congress and their staff from some of the
provisions of the Affordable Care Act, Politico reported late Thursday.
Under the law, popularly referred to as Obamacare, lawmakers and their
aides were required to source health insurance "created" by the law or
offered through one of its exchanges, and without the subsidies they
currently enjoy, the members of Congress would have faced thousands of
dollars in additional premium payments each year, the report said.
However, the Office of Personnel Management now plans to rule that the
government can continue to make a contribution to the health-care
premiums of the lawmakers and their staff, it said, citing unnamed
congressional sources and a White House official.
Rat. Bastards.

A disaster.
DeleteI view the staff's of these "rats" to be just as guilty, based on the information available... they know just how much of their health care package is covered, and paid for by "other peoples money". In this case, American taxpayers, and the fact that they know "they" get the Cadillac plan, while "we the people" will be made to pay for (at best) the skateboard plan, mandated by law (barry care).
ReplyDeleteYes, pure BS.
DeleteWhy wouldn't they want to drink for the same vile of poison they expect us to drink from?
