After major progress in negotiations on the reconciliation bill Thursday, it appears some moderates with procedural demands are the last big hurdle for Democrats to pass the massive spending plan.
There is a Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) score for the bill, but the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has released nothing, and it's not clear when it will. There's been no effort to pre-conference the bill with the Senate, and it is now widely expected the upper chamber will make significant changes to it.
There's been no effort to work with the Senate to make sure it won't change the bill after it passes the House – known as pre-conferencing – and it is now widely expected the upper chamber will make significant changes to it.
There were changes made to the bill late Thursday night in the House Rules Committee, meaning 72 hours with the final bill text would be late Sunday night.
