Proceed with what, who knows??? The actual bill language will be more definitive in terms of how many "conservatives" and/or "moderates" will be on board for any final vote. At any rate, it is astounding that a president with an approval rating in the 30's could have sway pushing legislation that has poll number sin the 20's.
