I heard that there is a chance to keep ACA since the senators need another vote

By Wed. They are saying to call, write, etc., today and Tues. It isn't over call yet and to call your reps, both GOP and Dem.

Is this true? This is the only info I have gathered regarding the possibility of getting the 8 Dem senators to change their minds before a final vote this week and put pressure on MAGA senators and congressmen.

Since they only need 50 votes for it to pass, how many Republicans are you expecting to vote against it? MichMan Monday #4

The vote last night was to end debate and force a final vote on it.

I suppose there is a chance some of the eight could change their minds and vote no, but I'm not very hopeful about it.
