Subject: RE: BS: Republican Waterloo? Health Care?
The vast majority of the new law was not passed using reconciliation. The vast majority of it was passed with a clear majority in the House, and a super majority in the Senate. A very small part of the new law was passed through reconciliation, and that part was a separate bill that was passed later and signed into law later. Most of the new health care law could not be repealed using reconciliation.
