New Debate Over Obamacare Wording
Since the Supreme Court decision on Obamacare was
issued, a new issue has surfaced. Under the law, states
are given a period of time to setup insurance exchanges.
Insurance exchanges are meant to be one-stop clearing
houses where individuals and employers can compare
features and premiums of competing Qualified Health
Plans. If the state does not set up an exchange, the fed-
eral government will step in and set one up in the state.
The debate is over a provision of the law concerning
subsidies to low and middle income people to help them
pay the premium to help meet the requirement that ev-
eryone be covered by a health insurance plan. The law
as written provides for the subsidy to be provided to
those enrolled through an exchange established by the
State, but does not mention an exchange established by
the federal government. Since several states have stated
that they will not participate in the program and will
not set up exchanges, this could be an important point.
The federal government has issued a rule allowing sub-
sidies to those enrolled in either a state or federal
change. The IRS says that this was a drafting mistake
and that Congress did not intend to deny the subsidy to
those states operating under a federally-established ex-
change. Others say that this is overreaching on the part
of the federal government, in violation of the dear mean-
ing of the law as drafted. Some House members are
drafting a bill to nullify the rule. The rule could be chal-
lenged in court, but it might take some time for some-
one to obtain "standing" to challenge the rule.
Madison County Farm Bureau
I enjoyed attending the Madison County Farm Bu-
reau annual meeting last week. It was great to see a lot
of old friends and to meet some new ones. More than
one person jokingly asked if the Legislature could do
something about the weather. Farmers are suffering
more than most from the prolonged drought. Iam a
long time Farm Bureau member. I appreciate the good
work the organization does.
As always, feel free to contact me with your ideas or
concerns at 515-281-3221 or by email at julian.garre

AL LAMMERS FALL FEST
Concluded from p. 1
Will allow a view of all activities that have been sched-
uled in each building and the specific facility in each of
the buildings district-wide. This will be a very impor-
tant link for any groups who will want to reserve any
school facility and determining the facility availability.
The Athletic/Activities Office will direct those who have
not yet looked at the facilities calendar to do so before
submitting requests. The facilities calendar can be found
at the following link: http://fs-norwalk.rschoolto
day.com/calendar/index/index/viewtype/6. Both the Ac-
tivity and Facility links can also be found on the Activi-
ties page of the school website as well. For external
groups school facilities are available after 7 p.m. during
the weekdays and 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. on the weekends.
As a reminder, the prioritization of facility scheduling
are as follows: school programs, parks and recreation,
programs and external requests.
Norwalk Family Activity Passes will once again be
available to those interested in purchasing them. Fam-
ily passes are valid for both parents and any students in
grades K through 5th. As a reminder, students must be
accompanied by an adult when a family activity pass is
used for admission. Single Adult Activity Passes are also
available. The purchase of a student activity pass is, as
it always has been, optional for the student. A reminder
that student activity passes for next year can be pur-
chased for $35, grades 6 through 12. However, due to
our student ID card and processing system of these
cards, we are requesting that all activity passes be pur-
chased during the registration period or prior to Au-
gust 13. If an activity pass is purchased after this date,
an additional fee of $10 will be charged to cover the
cost of a duplicate card that will include the activities
pass. Family Activity Passes will cost $190 and Single
Activity Passes are $90. These passes may be purchased
in the Athletic Office at Norwalk High School or at the
district-wide registration evenings. Activity passes are
also available as part of a Norwalk Athletic Booster Club
membership. Gold Passes are available for senior citi-
zens free of charge. Any retired senior is eligible to ob-
tain a Gold Pass for admission to all activities. All passes
may be purchased or obtained during the district-wide
registration evenings on August 6 and August 9 from 4
to 7.p.m. at Eastview Cafeteria at the Athletic/Activities
Office table.
