They are saying 'The House has done what it was supposed to do , now it's up to the Senate"
But if everybody knows it's dead on arrival at the Senate
WHAT'S THE USE??
Someone explain this to me please?
Thanks much

IF things were functioning as designed, then when the Senate voted it down they would
also come up with a real compromise bill which they would send back to the House.
IF things weren't dysfunctional, then this bill (really a compromise) would be considered & probably changed a little bit by the House, then sent back to the Senate. Most likely reasonable people would look at it & consider the whole situation & pass it and....
this would all be over.
