hooray for the house, but these things are better done as part of a bill not standalone. It may not even get to the Senate floor.

Stick it in a bill that you know the Senate wants to pass.

That’s how things get done in Congress.

Has the so called Cadillac tax been removed? It’s a big issue because the evil bastards didn’t index it so eventually it will hit almost everyone.

The advantage of being a stand-alone bill is that Senate Democrats up for re-election are pressured to vote for it. To vote against it provides great fodder for campaign ads against them.
