Cassidy says the policy portion is ready to go, but it's politics/process that's the biggest hurdle. King has not talked to Schumer about it yet in detail and says they don't have a finished proposal Coons: This “is one of the most difficult things for Congress to do.” — PolitiTweet.org

Bottom line: This isn't a West Wing episode. Social Security/Medicare financial crisis is far enough away for both parties to ignore it for now. King and Cassidy have made a real effort and they may be an actual bill, but it's difficult to see political path forward at moment — PolitiTweet.org
