Senator Ron Johnson to sue over healthcare subsidy for Congress When Congress passed the health reform law in 2010, an amendment required that lawmakers and their staff members purchase health insurance through the online exchanges the law created. They would lose generous coverage under the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program. The author of the amendment, Republican Senator Charles Grassley, argued that if Obamacare plans were good enough for the American public, they were good enough for Congress. Democrats, eager to pass the reforms, went along with it. But it soon became apparent the provision contained no language that allowed federal contributions toward their health plans. This caused fears that staff would suddenly face sharply higher healthcare costs and leave federal service. In other words, the Dems not only want us to pay for our insurance and that of "the poor", but for them and their staff as well.... due to the... "affordable"... high cost they would face under the new law they passed for the "benefit" of the people.... Go figure
