Procedurally unworkable
27-Jan-10
Senior Senate aides say they’ve hit an impasse over one of the proposed routes forward [on health care] — the scenario where the Senate would pass a reconciliation “sidecar” fix to the Senate bill first, making it easier for the House to then follow up and pass the Senate bill.
Senate aides say that they’re not sure this possibility — one of several floated by Dem leaders, and one preferred by some House Dems — is procedurally workable. And they say figuring out whether that’s feasible is what’s causing the delay.
When are we going to admit that the Senate itself is procedurally unworkable?
