How did this originate in the House as the Constitution demands?
It originated in the Senate that gets to forward their own bills, but only the House bills authorizes funding even if the concurrent bills are similar. Then both have to go through a reconcile process.
The above is why few if any House Bills got through under Harry Reid's tyranny and his change of Senate rules. The new Republican House would send bills to the Democrat Senate and Reid would bottle them up in committee and not allow a floor vote or require a super-majority for some floor votes. He moved the goal post as he saw fit.
That's why we are so pissed after gaining the Senate and controlling the House while McConnell and Boehner plays nicey nice. Those two pathetic RINO's just won't play hard ball like Reid and earlier Pelosy did.
The anger, distrust, and disgust from the above is why Boehner resigned. He can say whatever, he knew the conservatives are gaining strength. Now if only McTurtleface will get a clue...
