Instead, they’re required to enroll in plans sold through the new "health exchanges" in their districts or place of residence. That September 2009 amendment, offered by Republican Sen. Charles E. Grassley of Iowa, sprang from the GOP’s attempts to derail health care reform. Grassley argued politicians should live with their own law, which he opposed. The amendment survived when Democrats pushed the legislation through six months later without a single Republican vote."
