逐步削弱平衡预算法。

Mod Healthc. 1998 May 4;28(18):30-3.

While no piece of legislation in Washington is every really finished, the lobbying over last year's balanced-budget law is especially fierce. Special-interest groups of every stripe--especially healthcare groups--are working furiously behind the scenes to change what they don't like about the law and keep the parts that benefit their interests.

虽然华盛顿的任何一项立法都不会真正完成，但围绕去年平衡预算法的游说活动尤其激烈。形形色色的特殊利益集团——尤其是医疗保健集团——正在幕后拼命运作，以改变他们不喜欢的法律内容，并保留对其利益有利的部分。
