ORIGINAL: mnottertail Point of order please? Now, if there is a passage to this bill, it still has to be reconciled with the senate version which is a way different animal, and when reconciled, does it have to be revoted by members of both houses or can it be committee approved by both, or revoted one and committee approved one? Does anyone know offhand, this isn't an area I have given much attention to. ? Ron Voted by both Houses but without filibuster I think. 51% majority in both Houses. Check me on this please. I don't think the "without filibuster" part is correct unless the Bill comes out of reconciliation without any "germane" amendments. Cloture rules Well, that is very interesting, do you think that any 'reconciled' bill come up on the calendar will be closely followed by a cloture vote on it? Or do you think they will go through the dogfight again and again on this? It depends on how close the final bill is to the Senate bill. If its so different that it has no chance of passage then they'll just vote and kill it. If Pelosi rams the Senate bill through, then its a done deal. Somewhere in between the two is a dogfight.
