Rand Paul: Chief Justice Roberts, All Federal Employees, Should Be Subject to Obamacare
Considering an amendment to do it
Arguing federal workers should not get special treatment, Rand Paul says he does not want taxpayers subsidizing the personal health care plans of any federal employee — including Chief Justice John Roberts — anymore.
With some in Congress arguing lawmakers and their staff should not get subsidies to cover their health insurance as President Obama's health care law goes into effect, the Republican senator from Kentucky told The Daily Caller on Sunday that he's going to start pushing a constitutional amendment that goes even further.
