Bart Stupak Has Problems
Michigan Democrat Bart Stupak has problems.
Big problems.
Here’s the situation. He and his bloc of pro-life Democrats want Stupak’s pro-life language in the final health care bill. The talk of late is that this might be done by inserting the Stupak language into the reconciliation bill that is currently being negotiated. Here’s how this scenario would go down: the House votes for the Senate bill, which does not have the Stupak language; then it votes for the reconciliation “fixer,” which does have the Stupak language; then the Senate votes for the reconciliation fixer; in the end, the Stupak language becomes law.
That’s a mess.
