[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Byrd rule is destroying the BBB.  So many of the fancy-pants end-run stuff they packed in to the reconciliation bill are getting nixed.

When the BBB finally comes up for a vote, it may end up being a minimal basically-a-CR.

The upcoming vote (or not-a-vote) on the rescissions package is one to watch.  If they don't vote on it by the 18th, the package fails and the administration must spend the money.  We'll see.[/quote]
You can’t change the law with only 51 votes.[/quote]

That is just the filibuster rule. It is a senate rule. The rule needs to go. Whoever is in majority should be able to pass laws with a simple majority. The senate is already slanted to small, under populated rural states. [/quote]
Everyone always said that the Democrats couldn’t scrap the filibuster because than as soon as the Republicans got power they would use that to run roughshod over everything that’s been done to improve regular people’s lives over the last hundred years. These guys are governing like they’ll never lose power again, I don’t think it’s out of the question.[/quote]
