Republicans Expected to Vote Against Insulin Cap

Sen. John Thune (R-SD) told CNN he expects Republicans to try to eliminate the insulin provisions in the budget reconciliation bill under consideration in the Senate.

Thune said he expects a Republican to offer a point-of-order to strike the $35 insulin cap. They likely will succeed because the Senate parliamentarian has ruled it in violation of budget rules.

Democrats left the provision in the bill, daring Republicans to strip it out.
