Rep. King just told just they can hear us in the rules committee.
Maybe the chant should be changed to “come out, come out; wherever you are...”
Alcee Hastings just brought that up- he said those people can be heard, but they’re insured and don’t have pre-existing conditions...
He is a fool.
I don’t have health insurance right now and I DON’T WANT IT FROM THE US GOVERNMENT.
Code Red says 211 No 209 Yes 11 undecided
From IBD: "If you look at the numbers below, you understand why this is consequential. Teague puts the definite No votes at 210, with five leaners, four of them part of the Stupak bloc. There are only 8 undecideds left, and 208 Yes votes with leaners. So Pelosi would have to get all 8, including Stupak bloc member Kathy Dahlkemper, and hold Marcy Kaptur (who probably shouldnt be a lean Yes). Failing that, she could try to flip Glenn Nye, or go to one of her committee chairs voting No (Ike Skelton, Collin Peterson) and ask them to walk the plank."
Pinch me, I'm a little dinged, but isn't this Good News!?
