15. The Dem's in 84-86 got the GOP to agree to undo the Reagan DI order
Indeed a law was passed that ordered them to be fair (like you should need a law?). Now this was primarily aimed at SS and its disability program.
Medicaid/Disability is a different program and while it was shut down in effect in the 80's I am not really certain that the law that Tip O'Niel (D, Mass) had passed actually applied to those benefits. They may just have gotten on the be fair kick after Tip's law.
In any case I hope that explains to you why the Reagan spring 1981 rule did not affect Florida in the 90's.
