Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid narrowly won approval Friday to restore funding for ObamaCare in a must-pass budget bill, in a direct challenge to Republicans who are insisting the law be defunded — or at least delayed — as a condition for their approval.
The Senate voted earlier Friday to advance the bill, which in its original form would keep the government open while defunding ObamaCare. The Senate voted 79-19 to advance that bill. Several Republicans joined Democrats in voting “yes,” ignoring appeals by Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and other conservatives to stall the vote.
The House plans to convene on Saturday to take up the bill. If Republicans stand by their demand that ObamaCare be defunded, delayed or otherwise undermined, then the two chambers could easily be at an impasse by midnight on Monday. That’s when the current government spending bill expires; without a new bill, the government would partially shut down.
Tempers and rhetoric were heated on Friday as Democrats accused their Republican colleagues of playing with legislative fire. “We are at one of the most dangerous points in our history right now — every bit as dangerous as the break-up of the Union before the Civil War,” said Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa.
