When Obamacare was implemented, there was quite a hoopla about members of Congress being required to sign up just like regular folks. I haven't heard a peep about that this time around. Just wondering what you all think about that.

I imagine their health care plan(s) were Obamacare compliant.

I imagine their health care plan(s) were Obamacare compliant.I guess we don't know. Is it public record?

I highly doubt it.

Are members of Congress or their aides required to suffer under Obamacare? Of course not. Congress traditionally exempt themselves from odious laws.

I imagine that there are "news" articles that discuss it.

That is the problem with Congress. They don't have to live like we commoners. If they did we'd have a congress whose approval ratings would be higher than the teens and lower 20's.
