Fox just reported 60 votes are needed for full repeal unless he changes the rules for a 51 vote majority.

I dream of a day when Republicans control the Senate and can do things like that.

All it requires is 51 votes.

Fox somehow thinks because 60 votes originally voted for it, then that must mean 60 votes to repeal it. Total B.S.

It won't be a repeal as that word is normally used.

See H.R.3762 - 114th Congress - Reconcilliation, vetoed by Obama January 8, 2016, for the pattern.
