Maybe someone can help me understand this. The Republicans in the House can't "block" anything. They don't have enough votes on their own. This bill required a 2/3rds majority to pass because the Democrats supposedly didn't want the Republicans to be able to introduce amendments. If the Republicans don't have a majority then they can't force their amendments either, so why did the Dems worry about them so much? Couldn't they have just done a normal 50% + 1 vote and blocked the amendments that they didn't like? What am I missing here?
