So the full House doesn’t get any more input on it?
If that’s the case then we need to start a recall effort for Boehner and Cantor, BEFORE they get the job of reconciliation. Let them know there will be SERIOUS repercussions if they screw us all for the sake of a “show”!!!!!!!
I know Cantor has said that the votes are all just for show and Obamacare will be funded. If he’s the one who will be deciding this thing, then anybody who votes for cloture is absolutely a traitor to the constituents, and this really and truly is the last chance for any of them to make the good stand. I believe Boehner is already so badly compromised that he is worse than worthless. My guess is that Valerie Jarrett gave him permission to defund Obamacare in the House to save face with R’s, because the fix was already in for the reconciliation.
Somebody tell me what we can do to tell Cantor and Boehner that they are history - BEFORE they do the dirty deed.
My understanding is they get to vote on whatever comes out of reconciliation but it has to go to committee first and be reported out. I’m not sure but I don’t think they can make amendments since that would break whatever deal came out of reconciliation.
I’m with you on the leadership though and simply don’t trust them for anything. These guys inspire no one and the best they can do is bully House members. They have “loser” tattooed on their ankles. I wish they were both canned from leadership but not sure the conservative reps have the votes.
