PAYGO 2010 was enacted during an upsurge in deficit mania, led by Republicans, embraced by the Obama White House and Democrats on a mix of centrist conviction and belief that it’d help them politically. — PolitiTweet.org

@sahilkapur Remind me again why would Dems enact paygo to shoot themselves in the foot?

tl;dr —> The 2010 PAYGO law enacted by Democrats forces automatic cuts to Medicare and other safety-net programs if new policies raise the debt. Congress can stop the cuts (and often does). But that probably can't be done in reconciliation. Needs 60 votes. https://t.co/j7lSvOoli3 — PolitiTweet.org
