White House, Dems preemptively blast House GOP budget plan before it's introduced

The House offer a clean CR yet?

Yes with the Vitter amendment attached. That congress lives under the Health Care Act that they passed.

"Overwhelmingly, 94 percent of voters consider it fair that the Congress be required to abide by the same law they passed for the country. Conversely, 92 percent of voters believe it is unfair that the Congress should be exempt from buying their insurance in the health exchanges," the poll said.

The Vitter amendment would get rid of the employer contributions for health care received by lawmakers and congressional aides. Under the health care law, such employees are required to enroll in health-care exchanges instead of their current coverage under the Federal Employee Health Benefits Plan. The amendment requires executive branch employees to get on the exchanges, too, without subsidies.

Unbelievably stupid. Congress is not exempt. In fact THEY ARE SINGLED OUT TO BE FORCED ONTO THE EXCHANGE. The issue is with paying for it. You believe lies so easily.

Why not just repeal Grassly's amendment that forced Congress and staff onto the exchange in the first place. Let them keep the coverage they had...LIKE EVERYONE ELSE WHO HAS COVERAGE...that was part of their compensation package?

Lies followed by spin....and nutters bite like hungry fish.

Latest GOP plan

Then after three months we will be back with more demands
And just what do you think the Communist Democrats are doing?? Boy are you such a frigging bootlicker for the Left.

Nothing? now run away Doris

So before, like most Americans, their employer contributed to their health insurance. Now they don't

Sounds like they are getting fucked

Congress, Fearing 'Brain Drain,' Seeks to Opt Out of Participating in Obamacare's Exchanges - Forbes

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R., Iowa) slipped in an amendment requiring that members of Congress, and their staff, enroll in Obamacare’s health insurance exchanges. The idea was simple: that if Congress was going to impose Obamacare upon the country, it should have to experience what it is imposing firsthand. But now, word comes that Congress is quietly seeking to rescind that provision of the law, because members fear that staffers who face higher insurance costs will leave the Hill.

Section 1312(d)(3)(D) of the Affordable Care Act (look it up)


"Members of Congress and congressional staff. Under FEHBP…the government’s share of premiums is set at 72% of the weighted average premium of all plans in the program, not to exceed 75% of any given plan’s premium.”

Meaning Congress and staff were already contributing to their health insurance plans.

It doesn't amount to a pay cut.

You are confused.
 
As long as House Republicans only care about passing bills that make the Tea Party happy and no one else, they will be Dead On Arrival as usual.

Right now it seems to be D and R vs TP, and the TeePee's are in an alternate reality where they think they're the majority.

Full of shit again I see.

You as well as others keep talking about this huge group of Republicans in Congress held at knife point, gun point or some point by Tea Partiers forcing these Republicans to do what the Tea Party wants.

Name the Republicans held hostage by the Tea Partiers. Come on. Cough up some fucking names for these faceless souls who are being terrorized in Congress.

Or shut the fuck up.

Math was not your best subject was it?

Under FEHB, the employer payed 72% of the premium. Anyone going into the exchange forfeits that premium. That was the "exemption" that rightwingers were whining about

Take away the employer contribution and the employees get screwed
 
And by the way, this thread is wrong; it was The Heritage Foundation today that was opposed to this new proposal. They even reached out to Republicans to not vote for it.
 
So Boehner screws up again

Default on our debt, destroy our credit rating, crash the world market

All because he cant tell the TeaTards to fuck themselves
