Understandably, congressional staffers are upset by this and many have threatened to quit if it's not fixed. Congress is trying to craft a bipartisan bill which will allow the federal government to pay a portion of the staffers' premiums like it always has without opening the doors to loopholes for other large employers.
Tough shit. Congress and their staffers should feel twice the pain for ACA that the average American does.

The fucktards on both sides of aisle are at it again! In just how many ways will they exempt themselves from the laws they force us to follow?

Let's see...

-They get MUCH better healthcare to begin with.
-They get to legally conduct insider trading with the best information.
-No sequester pay cuts for them!
-Their DC-based flights are not affected by FAA sequester.
-The list goes on...

Theres no 'may' on this, its written right into the bill that they're exempt.

Let them do it. Let it be posted on front page news. Let the difference between classes be widely known.

This is the only way for people to wake up. Hit them in the face with reality.

it will be said "gop votes to exempt" or "DNC votes to exempt" not that both parties did it. So people will continue to hate the other party.
