I'm trying to imagine what Turnp Victory smells like, and my brain can only think of a mtg world tournament but with more cologne mixed in, and shit breath and whatever roofies and Valium smells like.

(USA) House GOP Bill Now Bans Medicaid Gender Affirming Care for Adults (www.erininthemorning.com)

They stayed up late putting in edits that bans Medicaid from covering gender affirming care even for adults now. They said they were going to. It may be voted on in the house Thursday, May 22nd. Trump is pushing this massive spending bill to be passed ASAP.

The House needs to vote on it, it succeed, it go to the Senate, they vote and it and it succeed there, then the president accepts it, for it to become law.

Republicans hold majorities in both the House and Senate.

They will likely try to pass through the filibuster in the Senate with Budget Reconciliation so as to not require 60 votes, and therefore just a simple majority. That has its own rules though.

Edit: This morning the house voted for and passed the bill. Off to the Senate it goes. This is where everything happens.
