@RoKhanna That is my understanding too! But ‘75 was before Byrd became law. My point is it would largely neuter that rule. — PolitiTweet.org

.@RoKhanna + 22 House Dems call on White House to ignore the parliamentarian and allow a $15 wage in the Covid bill. A Senate expert tells me @VP has the power do this—and it'd take 60 votes to overrule her—but that it's never been done on Byrd rule. WH has rejected this call. https://t.co/dbiFonV6cR — PolitiTweet.org

What @RoKhanna et al. are calling for is @VP to *ignore* the parliamentarian by issuing a ruling that the $15 wage complies. The parl. is an adviser and has no power to rule; the presiding officer rules and VP can preside. Hence this scenario doesn’t require a vote to *overrule.* — PolitiTweet.org
