        Of course. States always want federal dollars... the more the better. ...and they love the lack of accountability too.

        When has the US ever seen such strong, united opposition to a piece of major legislation as there seems to be growing toward #GrahamCassidy?

        Not downplaying significance, but what's source for "all 50 states"? Statement from board (looks 8-4 Dem), don't know if unanimous. Right?

        This is quite possible but the articles I've seen stating it cite a letter that doesn't say so. Not disagreeing, just looking for source.
