Like it or not, the bill number originated in the House. How they got there and by what outrageous machinations are immaterial. Our illustrious Supreme Court will rule it such.

I'd be surprised if the "conservative" judges ruled that way. What the Senate did, even if it adhered to the letter of the law, clearly violated the intent of the law. If the Senate can just gut a House bill in such a manner, then why would the Founders even have bothered with an Origination Clause?
