This "thinking" and he will do it, just makes me so crazy mad. They knew this would happen in 2010 within a few months of passing the ACA. Ryan brought it up at the meeting in 2010, Mike Enzi introduced a bill in the fall onf 2010 to reverse this regulatory regulation from HHS, every D senator voted it down, in 2010!!
It makes me angry as well. In addition to your fine points, Senator Cruz along with Sen Lee tried to get them to extend the date as well via a fillibuster.
