Senate Staff Meet with Parliamentarian

“Senate Democratic and Republican staff will meet this morning with the parliamentarian to discuss whether Democrats can include the House’s immigration reform provisions in their social spending bill,” Politico reports.

“The meeting, part of the so-called ‘Byrd Bath’ process, is scheduled for 10 a.m. Democrats must show the immigration provisions in the House bill have a direct budgetary impact to pass muster with the chamber’s rules arbiter.”
