Didn't the bill have to go back to the House because of some Republican point?

12. Since changes were made to the Senate reconciliation bill, it now goes back to the House so |
|
they can pass the same exact bill (with changes just made). And this too shall pass. Probably today. And then it goes to Obama's desk for signature.

29. Thanks, I think I get it. |
|
I guess I didn't think they could do reconciliation until the changes were made in the house. All of these arcane rules and procedures are confusing to this lay person.

9. I don't know.....I just know that 2 of those 41 votes were B. Lincoln and Nelson of Nebraska! |
|
So, that would leave Repugs 39 of those votes.

26. That's tyranny RAMMING it through with the support of a majority of elected Senators like that. |
|
They should have gone with what the MINORITY wanted. That would have been the democratic thing to do. :sarcasm:
