Reply #7: I agree. That is why the House passes the Senate Bill. Lieberman wont be voting on that again.

Then they pass through Reconcilliation the changes to the excise tax provisions and others (subsidies, etc) that they are working on - hopefully the modification to a national exchange or PO instead of state-based exchanges too. Those only need 50 votes and the Insurance regulations would have already been completed by the House passing the current Senate HC Bill.

I think that will be the plan.



edit to add - We don't need Lieberman's vote on the Reconcilliation Bill either.
