Understood. But the way the bill is written, it will take a two-thrids majority to repeal it. They will pass it calling it a procedural change (60 votes to invoke cloture) and when anyone tries to repeal it, they will call it a rule change requiring two thirds vote.

Ok, and when the next vote comes on this treachery, each Republican needs to stand up and object to the tyranny of the majority and walk out without voting.

The Rats call it a Senate procedural change at the same time and still make it a general law that effects the rest of the country. It cannot be both making it another unconstitutional clause.
