But speaking of the $75B slush fund they’re now throwing at the Senate, how exactly is that being handled in light of the CBO score? If it’s annually, then they’re way outside the $33B -/+ that the AHCA was supposed to “save” annually and thus the bill can no longer pass under reconciliation because it will add to the deficit. And if it’s spread out over a length of time so as not to go over that $33B figure, then it’s a fuckin’ drop in the bucket.

Either way, the Senate Democrats should be raising hell right now, demanding the CBO score the bill in light of the changes so as to determine if it still comforms to the rules regarding reconciliation bills.
