I wonder if it would help if both the new House and the new Senate file a “Sense of the House/Senate” to affirm that when they, as a body, defined those parties eligible for subsidies, they intended the definitions and instructions used, to be understood explicitly as stated. Anything else would leave legislating to courts, which have no Constitutional role in crafting legislation.
Your post 33 was updated while I was typing my post 41. I should have waited a couple of minutes and just agreed with you. You are right on point. I hope our representatives will take heed.
How can this be done? The House / Senate that wrote / passed this law doesn’t exist anymore. Many of them have been voted out of office for just this law!
The only thing that matters is what the law says.
