9. See my post below -- the Senate Democrats sold us out
The Senate Democrats rolled over and went along with it.
It could have been a shining moment for the Democratic party, but NOOOO, Kennedy and the Senate Dems had to go along with it.
The Democrats should have hung together on this -- just like they did on Social Security -- and let the Republicans totally own this bill. They could have let the Republicans take the heat for the awful pension bill.
But they didn't. The Senate Dems went along with it.
George Miller put up a fight in the House and got lots of House Dems to vote against it.
