Hey, Guys.
If it passes the House, and since it’s passed the Senate, what’s to keep it from landing on Obama’s desk for signing into law as is?
Nothing.
You’re spot on with your comment. If the House passes the Senate bill—you have the same bill passed in both houses. The Pres could sign that and be done with it. Reconciliation is a ruse—there’d be nothing to reconcile. I firmly believe that Dems would throw each other under the bus, just to get this done.
Not a single thing, in fact, I believe that is the demonRAT plan.
Pass it in the house, send it back to the senate for modification, and when they can't get enough votes to "reconcile" it, send the current senate bill to osamaobama.
