CCB I is dead. Reid killed it by tabling it. The bill was never ret’d to the House so Boehner cannot send the same one up.The Senate has its arcane rules that give it power.However IMO if Boehner and the GOP are smart they will send up a C&C to the Senate and drop the BBA.That was a non starter and should never have been included, especially since an amendment requires a 2/3 vote.Send up the cut and cap as in the original and force Reid’s hand.
I heard that ‘tabling’ does not technically kill the bill ... but then what do I know :-) Whatever .... Boehner needs to send something as close to CCB as he can get - I like your idea.
Ditto.
