House Plan Falls Apart

New York Times: “House Republican leaders struggled late Tuesday morning to craft a new proposal to reopen the government and change the president’s health care law, after a plan presented behind closed doors to the Republican rank-and-file failed to attract enough support immediately to pass.”

The Washington Post quotes Boehner: “There have been no decisions about what exactly we will do.”

Wall Street Journal: “House GOP leaders were wavering about whether to bring the legislation
to the floor for fear it might not have the support to pass, a lawmaker
and a handful of aides familiar with the deliberations said.”
