Sen. Claire McCaskill “Town Hall Meeting”
Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO)
Ms. McCaskill is giving a Town Hall meeting at this time. CNN has shown a brief segment. I did not see the meeting running on C-Span nor any live bloging. Here is what I heard:
1. In one of the Healthcare Reform Bills already written, (I did not get the name of the committee) the Republicans added approximately 140 amendments far exceeding those of the Democrats and ended up not voting for the bill in the end.
2. There was a request from a member of the audience for a list of the various amendments proposed (and I would suspect who wrote them). Ms. McCaskill replied “…give me a week to make the list available.” She loved the request.
3. (Author: Conspirator theorist) Did the Republicans put poison pen amendments in the bill knowing they would not vote for the bill anyway? Has this happened in other committees writing the Healthcare Reform Bill? I am mindful of the radio show, "The Shadow Knows".
As always,
BB
