#JudgeJackson just had to explain to @SenTomCotton that when you sue the federal government you have to name an OFFICER of the federal government, not "the government" itself.
This is how Tom Price ended up going from being a plaintiff to a named defendant in THE SAME LAWSUIT.
In 2014, Tom Price was a GOP member of the House when then-Speaker Boehner sued the Obama Admin over the ACA.
The case was still pending when Trump appointed Price to be his first HHS Secretary, which means the lawsuit became "House vs. Price" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_St…
In fact, the case technically went from being "House v. Burwell" to "House v. Price" "House v. Azar" and may have even been "House v. Wright" for a few days depending on the timing: acasignups.net/17/10/01/q-who…
--Nationally, total #ACA exchange enrollment was up *21%* in 2022 vs. 2021 thanks in large part to the #AmRescuePlan's expanded/enhanced financial assistance, as well as increased ACA navigator funding, increased outreach funding & the COVID Special Enrollment Period.
You go to an indoor public place, you put on a mask. You go outside, you take off the mask. When you eat, you take off the mask. When you’re done, you put on the mask.
"For how long?" OK, I agree that's trickier. If/when COVID ever really does get to the point where it's no worse than the flu in terms of communicability, hospitalization rates, death rates & long-term health effects, that would probably be my threshold.
Now I may change my thinking and decide to stop masking earlier than that after all...but why the hell is it any of her business (or anyone else's) if I choose to keep doing so for the foreseeable future? It doesn't hurt anyone else and in fact helps reduce *their* risk a bit.
📣 Clear evidence of just how effective vaccines are against dying of COVID: On the left, COVID *case rates* since last May; on the right, COVID *death rates* since last May:
📣 Meanwhile, the Red/Blue divide on COVID death rates continues to rise again, and is again nearly a mirror image of the vaccination rate divide:
⚠️ The #AmRescuePlan dramatically enhanced & expanded #ACA financial help for millions of people. Unfortunately, this is is currently set to expire at the end of 2022.
The #BuildBackBetter bill extends this thru 2025, but of course the GOP + Manchin blocked it in the Senate. 2/
⚠️ If the #AmRescuePlan's enhanced #ACA subsidies *aren't* extended beyond 12/31/22, 26-yr old enrollees will have to pay up to ~$1,500 more in health insurance premiums in 2023.
