Veterans Get Exempted from Health-care Bill - WSJ.com: "We're still sorting through the health-care deal Henry Waxman struck with Blue Dog Democrats recently, but one 11th-hour revision stands out. Namely, veterans will now be 'exempt from the requirements of the legislation.'
That's how Mr. Waxman's staff put it in a memo to reporters earlier this month, announcing amendments that the House Energy and Commerce Committee included before passing the bill 31 to 28. These changes were designed to assuage the 'grave concerns' of the American Legion, Amvets and others about how their members could be penalized by new taxes and insurance regulations."
