@ByronYork@ktumulty Actually, dept. by dept. funding is another way of funding everything except Obamacare. Same as CR except piecemeal. -
@brithume@ByronYork@ktumulty Isn't piece by piece funding the way it used to be done? Multiple authorizations -
@LegInsurrection@ByronYork@ktumulty Exactly. Pass appropriations bills through both houses, go to conference, iron out differences, pass. -
@JoanOfArgghh@brithume@LegInsurrection@ByronYork Most Obamacare is entitlement, right? (subsidies, medicaid). Not approp. Reconciliation. -
@ktumulty@JoanOfArgghh@LegInsurrection@ByronYork Rollout, administration, etc. would require appropriations. So would enforcement. -
@brithume@JoanOfArgghh@LegInsurrection@ByronYork But rollout is happening now, without appropriation, no? -
@ktumulty@JoanOfArgghh@LegInsurrection@ByronYork So it seems, and illustrates difficulty of the whole defund strategy. Hard to execute. - 2 more replies
