will people who are going without right now, get retro pay for the weeks they missed? How does that work, say you missed 2 weeks of money you should have had
First, it was tomorrow. Then out of nowhere, he files for cloture. Then he ends up voting against the cloture that he filed for. I'm not really sure what to think......maybe it's senility settling in.
Now there are 2 people to blame Ben Nelson for voting no, and Harry Reid for not accepting the 2 month extension.
I blame Nelson MUCH MORE, i mean it made sense at least, to stick to principle when his point of view had a CHANCE to win... but since they WILL have 60 votes soon... then all he is doing is delaying the unevitable!!! and causing people to go weeks with no $$$$$
IF only the WV governor would appoint someone to replace Sen. Byrd....
just swear someone in and re-vote....
I think out of respect they will wait until after his services... tomorrow his body will lie in repose in the Senate chambers for 6 hours . It would be a little odd to have a replacement in during this time...

he changed his vote and cancelled the vote
ONLY so that he can bring it up again, once they have a new WV senator to make 60....
