Democrats Set Different Rules For & Allow Taxpayer Bailouts of New Government-Run Plan
Democrats voted against an amendment offered by Rep. Charles Boustany (R-LA) to require the government plan to maintain reserves and other margins in amounts consistent with insurance standards that apply to private plans. The amendment would further clarify that reserves would have to come from premiums, not taxpayers thru federal subsidies.
This amendment to make the government-run plan operate on a more level playing field was defeated
