CNN headline: Democrats demand to see healthcare bill.
Posted by GumboPot on 6/20/17 at 11:35 am324
Why do senate Democrats even care about the bill that McConell and the rest of the senate GOPers are putting together? They have already vowed to vote against the bill.

Regardless of what it says.
Sad.
Aren't the rest of the Republicans also demanding to see the bill? From some of the Republicans they've interviewed, they're keeping it a secret from a good portion of their own party as well.

Regardless, I'd call their bluff. Give them all copies and ask them for their input.
While I don't disagree with the idea of the bill being transparent, the story around it is also incredibly dishonest. Even if the GOP passes the bill in the Senate it will go to a Conference Committee with the House before passing. This is a LONG way from becoming law and the truth is there will be a lot of time to debate the particulars. This whole "The GOP is trying to pass a bill in that is going to take away your HC and no one will see it!" is just nonsense.

You have to vote for it to see what's in it. Everyone knows that

Complaints from the party that passed a healthcare bill that literally let the Director of Health & Human Services do whatever he wanted in regards to setting heath insurance standards complaining about this proposed bill ring extremely hollow.

Maybe, maybe not. The House pushed their's through pretty quickly, and the Senate is doing the same. If they can get it done before the July 4th holiday(McConnell's goal), they can hash it out in conference committee fairly quickly, assuming the bills aren't that far apart. The R's are DESPERATE for major tax reform, and need this bill passed first to do that. ACA repeal frees up a bunch of money they can allocate to tax cuts. Don't believe their desire to repeal ACA. Their end goal has always been major tax cuts and reform.

You do realize that GOP had more than 100 amendments proposed and accepted into the final ACA bill.
That's why it's silly to say ACA was rushed in thru back door meetings and secrecy. Even more so compared to this anti-democratic "process".

shite. I must have missed that when I was conducting my extensive investigation into why the president got 2 scoops of ice cream.

you would be having a shite fit if this was reversed. to have a bill that goes up to vote that has not been read by the senate is a fricking horrible idea.

Why do you want them to pass a bill that they will let absolutely no one see before voting on it?
