NEW: There have been developments tonight in Grassidy. They released new language. But apparently CBO only scoring old ones. More soon.1/
As I suggested they would be, the most obvious changes are payoffs 4 @RandPaul , @SenJohnMcCain & @lisamurkowski.2/

But that's not all for @lisamurkowski, so pivotal for Grassidy to land. as @onceuponA points out...3/https://twitter.com/onceupona/status/912135746043117569 …
There appears to be some not very convincing window dressing on pre-ex. 4/https://twitter.com/easchlichting/status/912134265978200064 …
To win support of Paul, Cruz & Lee, upcharging 4 people w pre-ex, as @larry_levitt points out, has actually gotten a lot easier. 5/pic.twitter.com/YQV9F58OnI
And a really big deal, Grassidy now contains multiple risk pools. To please Lee, this will make things EVEN MORE expensive sick people. 6/
It also appears that now states can waive out of pocket caps paid by people-- more punishment if you're sick, more bankruptcies. 7/
States don't even need to apply for waivers any longer to do things like end pre-ex protections. They can apparently just do them. 8/
The payoffs were widely expected. Given the structural changes, even more money doesn't help. 9/ https://www.cbpp.org/blog/cassidy-grahams-harmful-impacts-on-alaskans-cant-be-fixed …pic.twitter.com/BPokYfNhGU
I will make a couple more important points until a thorough analysis is done... 10/
First, the redistribution payoff numbers are not to be trusted. There are line items which appear 2 add 2 states by taking from ppl.11/
Second, these are quick reads of high points. Smart ppl are doing real work now. So will put out more thorough & definitive analysis l8r.12/
But to sum up: Grassidy 2.0 is far, far worse An incoherent jumble to buy votes w 2 sets of key changes... 13/
Grassidy 2.0 blatantly shoves $ at key Senators. And destroys consumer protections & things which keep costs in line for sick ppl. 14/
KEY: Grassidy 2.0 is health insurance for healthy ppl, boondoggle 4 red states, robs Medicaid, and won't be properly scored. A disgrace. 15/
