[0:10]" I think today. Sometime in the afternoon it's going to be reported out of committee. And I would suggest there's going to be mostly party line.

[1:23]" I believe and if the Democrats. Want to stick together. And probably do work for the sole purpose of delivering a victory for the president and sixty would stick together. There's no. Supporting Republicans. Can't stop. Possibly disseminating. The Democrats and some doubts about some parts of the bill -- favorites against. But some parts of the bill.
