Legal Advice for Parents with Kids in That 'Awkward Stage' of Semi-Adulthood

My son was so excited to begin his freshman year at college in Savannah in autumn 2019. But COVID-19 forced the school to close just after its spring break, and he’ll be attending classes over Zoom through this summer. We have really enjoyed having him home, but he will finally be able to return to campus this coming fall term for his junior year.
He became a legal adult even before he graduated high school. Since turning 18, he has enjoyed all the legal rights of an adult (save buying liquor) and all the legal liabilities and responsibilities, but he is still in that in-between period of semi-adulthood. He is financially dependent on us, since we are paying for his health and auto insurance and his college tuition and housing costs. The Affordable Care Act requires that my group health insurance plan cover him until age 26, and income tax rules allow me to claim him as a dependent through the year he attains age 24.

An abbreviated history of budget reconciliation - State of Reform

An abbreviated history of budget reconciliation

Budget reconciliation – the oft-used pathway for expediting tax and spending legislation through Congress – may be poised for another star turn on the national stage. Democratic leaders are signaling they might set it in motion to secure passage of President Biden’s $1.9 trillion COVID-19 response measure. Some background on the process, and its history, may be helpful to understanding the importance of this imminent decision.
Budget reconciliation has been central to federal policymaking for more than four decades. Created in the 1974 Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act, the process allows the House and Senate to pass a budget, and then a bill implementing it, with majority votes, tight rules on allowable amendments, and limited time for debate. The process was first used in the last year of the Carter presidency to assemble unrelated budget cuts from several congressional committees into one omnibus bill. President Carter signed the Omnibus Reconciliation Act into law in December 1980.
