Otherwise, this bill is dead on arrival. The Senate will still be a toss-up as well, but once the Senate gets going, there should be some momentum passed onto the House that it may have a slim chance.
Yup. If the Senate were to pass the bill, the GOP Senators would really need to spend alot of political capital to get their colleagues in the House to vote yea.
