The idiot Dems tried to jam the bill through under the House’s “fast track” rules. A “fast track” bill requires a 2/3 vote to pass, so the GOP has more than enough votes to block it.

They can't. The house is in lame duck mode. Democrats control.

They see the tidal wave and are trying to survive it.
