No, it’s about amendments on the floor, bypassing the committee process. The key amendment is to INCREASE the estate tax provision in the deal.

The left wing wants that. The GOP should VOTE FOR IT. That change forces it back to the Senate. Then it has to either pass there or have a conference for resolution of differences. The GOP in the Senate will filibuster ANY changes.

It eats the clock.
