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.

And I demand they STFU and sit down. Elections have consequences.

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.

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

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?

And that should be the response. You will see it when it is time to for the vote. It's content is irrelevant since you have vowed to vote against it.

The republicans were not involved in this stage of the dem's bill either. The two bills will be reconciled in the wide open arena.

This whining is bullshite

Posturing.

If they don't let them see it, they will hold their breath!

Democrats have no power other than as obstructionists in the senate.

They can even lose that power if the Republicans had the balls to go Constitutional on them.
