The bi-partisan bill had WH support, support of a large number of Republican Senators and support of about a third of the House Republicans; the alternative "let the free market fix it" bill offered by the intransigent Republicans in the House was even rejected by the WH.

The bi-partisan bill stinks...everyone knows that, but most in Congress have put partisanship aside. No one will score points back home by voting for the bill. What the cadre of the most conservative House Republicans (the bunch with the "Country First" slogan) are doing is politics at its worst.
