I thought we would only get 17 or 18 republicans voting with 200 Democrats.

[RussBLib]

[Heather MC]

5. SWISH!!!!

I heard 80 Reps May go for this
If Boenher is Smart he will form a Coalition with Repugs that vote for this, and Shut out the tea turds for the next two years
I know he isn't but if he was.

[MiniMe]

3. So far, a lot of congress critters haven't voted yet

But they are starting to show up now

[ChangeUp106]

4. Voting on Amendments

[MiniMe]

6. What amendments?

This is supposed to be the final vote. If them make amendments, it has to go back to the Senate

[MSMITH33156]

9. Put this in another thread, but it can be repeated here

This is the vote. The original Tea Party House Bill was HR 2775. The Senate took that bill, stripped all the crap out, and amended it with the current compromise. They then sent it back to the House. Now the House is voting to accept those amendments, and if they do, it goes to the President. The reason the Senate did that is that this sort of legislation must originate in the House:

All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.

[MiniMe]

10. Looks like the dem changed their vote to Yea

[MSMITH33156]

14. LOL

I saw it popup as a 1, then disappear as well. Either they changed their vote, pushed the wrong button, or the computer temporarily screwed up. Probably just a mistake.

[RussBLib]

[Lifelong Dem]

17. I guess Obama was right

Send it to the House and it will pass. About friggin time Boehner did just that.

[LukeFL]

18. Is it true the grading system will be

Downgraded anyway tomorrow?

[Heather MC]

19. I hope not, trying to Refy if we get down graded again we are screwed

not just sad for me for everyone effected this is bullshit. I have been resisting the urge to go throw rocks at the House's Windows.

But I don't want to be the second black woman killed by District Police this month
