...And of course, the government Officials are EXEMPT.
Originally true, but an amendment was attached to the Bill that subjects government officials to it. There were not any no votes to the Amendment. Even Democrats voted for it.
Republican Rep. Martha McSally of Arizona proposed a stand-alone bill to strike the exemption of Congress from state waiver provisions should the AHCA be enacted into law.
McSally’s bill passed on May 4 by a 429-0 vote
