I keep hearing GOP leaders saying there isn't anything in the House bill to keep the government open that the Dems couldn't vote for, is that true? Apparently not. The bill included another way of shutting down ACA,i.e., Obamacare, by removing all the taxes that help pay for it. I don't think any of the Dems would vote for that in any sepperate bill, do you? I don't know all the details of the bill, but I wonder what other things in the bill the Dems would object to. The GOP talked about a "clean", bill, but it seems that they can put things they wanted in the so called clean bill, but not the Dems and it seems they lied about a major part of the bill.
