What is the likelihood of the Health Care Bill passing in the House tomorrow? Still a number of Republicans still against it.

Fails by quite a bit when the entire Freedom Caucus and a bunch of moderate Rs vote no.

Mark Meadows is softening his stance and says he is working with Trump to add changes to the bill. He also signaled that the FC might vote for it if these changes are added.

This bill is doomed in the Senate then.

If its not going to pass, I imagine they will just postpone or call off the vote?  Why even bother bringing it up if they're not sure it will pass.  Isn't that what the whips are for??

Ryan has previously stated a belief that when house members actually have to vote on this on the floor, and a vote against means keeping ObamaCare at least another few months, that their opposition will suddenly melt away due to their hatred of ObamaCare,  and they will vote yes despite previous no pledges. It's time for him to put his belief to the test.

"Vote your district, vote your conscience, just don't ever surprise me."

Anybody know who Kevin Spacey lifted that from? Kevin McCarthy.
