...The White House prodded House Republican leaders to make last-minute tweaks to their Obamacare replacement bill Thursday aimed at protecting high-cost patients before lawmakers leave Washington for their two-week spring break.
The changes would create a subsidy for insurers that cover sick, expensive patients, and could help revive Republican lawmaking efforts to repeal and replace large parts of the Affordable Care Act. They also echo a key program under Obamacare, which like the GOP proposal uses subsidies to lower premiums.
...The effort by the Rules Committee to rush to adopt an amendment to a bill -- without much time for anyone to read it or any immediate intent to take the measure to the House floor -- is highly unusual. But it reflects the strong desire by the White House to demonstrate that the effort to repeal Obamacare isn’t dead.
Republicans are weighing other changes to their health legislation as well, including a waiver for states that would let them out of federal requirements on what benefits insurers have to cover. That would likely lower premiums but also decrease consumer protections. They’ve also discussed eliminating what are known as community rating rules, which prevent insurers from varying premiums within a geographic area based on certain factors, including health status.

But yes, we'll get Gorsuch on the bench.
Get ready for the filibuster on legislation to go away before too long as well.
Calling the Reid Rule a nuclear option is typical MSM hysterics.TexasJohnBoy wrote:Nuclear Option Deployed
