What I'm talking about is NOT what is about to be voted on. The Section 1557 remand and stay has NOTHING to do with AHCA.

Section 1557 was interpreted last year to be such that trans discrimination and sex discrimination were identical. This ruling was enjoined.

It was a rulemaking from HHS, not an interpretation.

The rulemaking was literally an interpretation of the sex discrimination clauses.

Yes but it is literally a final rule and that's important because if they change it they have to have good reason under the APA.

I mean, we're arguing around and around. The final rule is "we interpret the law to mean this." We're saying the same thing.
