This seems like a good time to ask about the actual impact of the vague executive order Trump issued in January, basically telling the executive branch to "waive, defer, grant exemptions from, or delay" whenever legally possible:
> To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Secretary of Health and Human Services (Secretary) and the heads of all other executive departments and agencies (agencies) with authorities and responsibilities under the Act shall exercise all authority and discretion available to them to waive, defer, grant exemptions from, or delay the implementation of any provision or requirement of the Act that would impose a fiscal burden on any State or a cost, fee, tax, penalty, or regulatory burden on individuals, families, healthcare providers, health insurers, patients, recipients of healthcare services, purchasers of health insurance, or makers of medical devices, products, or medications.

- leereeves 10y agoThat's really not helpful. I've read both of those and neither contains much information. But I haven't seen the news mention anything more recently. Surely we've learned something about the actual impact in two months, but the news has moved on.
