I have a feeling the Union bosses got the exemptions, not the people they “represent.”
The exemptions are a different issue altogether. The 2700+ exemptions granted by HHS were to employers exempting them from the employer mandate, which is now delayed by one year. All of the employees of the exempted businesses are still subject to the individual mandate. While problematic and a crock of crap, the exemptions have no bearing on individual participation in the exchanges.
