Senate Fight Starts: GOP Says Senate Parliamentarian Will Kill Fix-Its Bill
March 21, 2010 5:01 PM
ABC News' Z. Byron Wolf reports: The House bill has not yet passed and already we are seeing the reconciliation fight start in the Senate.
Senate Republicans say they can get the whole package of
reconciliation fixes – the fix-its that make the Senate plan palatable
to House Democrats - thrown out with a trump card procedural motion.
And they say Democrats are slow-walking a decision from the
parliamentarian until the House passes the Senate bill.
That means the Senate bill, which everyone in the House seems to universally hate, will be the law of the land.
