The loophole around this is the law permits employer to keep current coverage if able.The health insurance for congress and their drones(staffers) is staying the same from what I understand so they are in fact exempt.They keep their great health coverage while many people are being dropped due to this law and forced into the "exchanges" . That is the reality of the situation. Premiums are going up in most places and will skyrocket in coming years.
