"But the language Grassley
helped to develop was silent on government subsidies for health
insurance, and the ability to revert to an FEHBP plan after retirement."
3/3/14, "For lawmakers, an O-Care escape option," The Hill, by Pete Kasperowicz
"The origin of language that ropes members and staff into ObamaCare
came from Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), who insisted members should have
to live by the same rules others would face.
But the language Grassley
helped to develop was silent on government subsidies for health
insurance, and the ability to revert to an FEHBP plan after retirement.
Congressional
aides agreed that the absence of specific language
on these issues in
the legislation gave the OPM the wiggle room to provide for these
flexibilities by rule.
But these flexibilities would appear to go against Grassley's intent. In September, Grassley told Roll Call that the point of the language was to treat members like everyone else who had to use an ObamaCare exchange.
"My
goal, regardless of how the amendment was worded...was that we need to
go into the exchange so that we would have to go through the same red
tape as every other citizen," he said." via Mark Levin twitter

Comment: Screw you, Grassley. You're a con artist like the rest. If the "rule" isn't what you planned why haven't you fixed it?
