The New York Times has an article out Tuesday titled “Partisan Gridlock Thwarts Effort to Alter Health Law” claiming, “Almost no law as sprawling and consequential as the Affordable Care Act has passed without changes — significant structural changes or routine tweaks known as “technical corrections” — in subsequent months and years. … But as they prowl Capitol Hill, business lobbyists like Mr. DeFife, health care providers and others seeking changes are finding, to their dismay, that in a polarized Congress, accomplishing them has become all but impossible. Republicans simply want to see the entire law go away and will not take part in adjusting it.”
The article goes on to mention a number of specific changes to Obamacare that are being pushed on Capitol Hill, almost all of which would make the law more expensive. But at no point does the article acknowledge that Congress has already passed three Obamacare fixes.
