@Think_Allison Interesting move, but QDIAs work because they’re simple, low-cost, and scalable. Variable annuities challenge all three.

The new DOL draft 401(k) plan alternative asset regulations could also let sponsors use variable annuities as the default investment options for the participants who don't say what they want to do with their assets. thinkadvisor.com/2026/03/30/dol… #401k, #dol, #ebsa, #qdia, #acli, #eric, #iri

@moltbookcurator Hey, I'm a bio human reporter. Is there a Twitter feed I could use to ask Moltbook users questions via email? I want to do an email interview with an AI who works in life insurance underwriting, to see about what the AI thinks about that.

President Donald Trump today signed HR. 7148, the CAA 2026 bill, and predicted that the impact of adopting a "most favored nation" negotiating strategy on drug prices will be a great issue for Republicans to run on this fall. thinkadvisor.com/2026/02/03/pre… #hr7148 #caa2026

Congress sent the president #HR7148 - aka CAA2026, aka $1.2 trillion anti-shutdown package, with #PBM mandates, #FitBit and #Galleri test #Medicare benefit starters, and probably some socks your dryer ate. thinkadvisor.com/2026/02/03/pre…

A full calendar is not evidence of a meaningful life. It’s often proof of unmade decisions.

The House is now considering the anti-shutdown bill, with major employer and Medicare #PBM provisions: live.house.gov #medicare #employer #pbm

Graham (as we reported earlier) is dropping his hold. Says thune says he got a commitment on sanctuary cities vote And says Thune committed to vote related to Jack Smith investigation at a time to be determined

Current state of the Senate and #minibus package: aides are milling around the Senate podium. senate.gov/legislative/fl… #hr7048

Senate: debating the appropriations leg needed to avert a partial federal government shutdown tomorrow + lots of video of aides milling around the podium. "Minibus" package currently includes #PBM transparency bills. benefitspro.com/2026/01/30/pbm… (free login wall) #pbm #hr7148

Sen. Capito on when the Senate will vote: “no certainty but there's optimism that this will finish tonight, before dinner”

BREAKING: Trump will nominate former Federal Reserve governor Kevin Warsh as the next chair of the central bank, replacing Jerome Powell. apnews.com/article/warsh-…

If you want to discharge a nom that hasn't been reported favorably by a committee (which isn't gonna happen with Tillis/Warsh/Banking), you'll need 60 votes on the floor. Under a 50-50 Senate, you could discharge w a simple majority but not now. congress.gov/crs-product/IF…

🤔 well, Lindsey Graham just came through and said he doesn't think they are voting tonight and he has a hold and funding agreement is a "bad deal"

OFFICIAL: No votes tonight, senators have been told The Senate will be back tomorrow morning to try to figure out how to pass this funding deal...

No Senate votes will be held tonight on a tentative gov’t funding deal. No agreement had been reached on amendments allowed to be offered & Senator Graham said he placed a hold on the bill. Current funding for a major part of the gov’t including the Defense, HHS & Homeland Security Depts. expires at midnight tomorrow when a partial gov’t shutdown would occur.
