@evolgress Well, it’s gone anyway because of the Parliamentarian. So making it a bipartisan vote might help with public support and, you know, politics. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@TheOxfordCommie Your mistake is assuming the bill would’ve passed with 51. Manchin seemed to have drawn a hard line. They probably would’ve had to strip it anyway. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Even if House Democrats could pass the Covid relief bill with a $15 minimum wage — which I’m still not sure about — there’s another reason you might still strip it: Republicans. I can imagine some GOP members joining Democrats on this bill if that provision is gone. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@varadmehta I’ve had some doubts, yes. But if it’s stripped, I don’t see any problem at all. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
So are House Democrats gonna strip the $15 minimum wage from their Covid relief bill, or are they gonna pass it as is to personally prove to me that they had the votes all along? Just to, you know, show me up. — PolitiTweet.org

My first question is “Where is the Senate Parliamentarian?” and my second question is “Does it seem more or less democratic to you that we let a single, unelected person have this much power over law instead of just eliminating the 60-vote majority in the Senate?” — PolitiTweet.org

@BjorkmanNeil Obviously my staff. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
To me, the drama is whether the Senate Parliamentarian says a $15 minimum wage can be done through reconciliation, and then whether Democratic leaders in the House put up that bill and subject vulnerable Democrats to that vote knowing it’ll be stripped in the Senate anyway. — PolitiTweet.org
Bill Scher @billscher
Democrats don't have 50 Senate votes for a $15 minimum wage, so this parliamentarian drama is a little overblown.… https://t.co/LdR4vun8NV

On a more serious note, I’m running for the Standing Committee because we face some serious challenges with access at the Capitol going forward. Here’s my pitch: https://t.co/AKswz7ZVC2 — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats could be in a real bind if the Senate Parliamentarian says a $15 minimum wage can be done through reconciliation. Moderates could revolt if it’s included, progressives could revolt if it’s *not* included. Welcome to partisan lawmaking! — PolitiTweet.org

@AWoltornist I mean, I agree. But also: https://t.co/uzMsIz0p8R — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
One little fact that you’ll find in some CQ almanac: When Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho) came to Congress in 1999, he tried to sit down with every Member of Congress, from both parties, and ask them questions and build a relationship. Can’t imagine *anyone* doing that now. — PolitiTweet.org

This is actually a new phenomenon by the way. The old school lib owners like Steve King were pretty active legislatively with amendments and offering bills (though you can’t say they actually got much written into law either, I suppose). — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Genuinely struck by how much new Republicans believe the job of “Member of Congress” is to just post online and do performative lib owning. How many bills do you think people like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert or Madison Cawthorn plan to get written into law? — PolitiTweet.org
