The "clay pigeon" may have just been shot down
June 27th 6:15 PM: One of the 27 amendments to the Senate immigration bill (S.1639) that was part of the Reid "clay pigeon" amendment just survived a motion to table. This may, repeat, may have been a major defeat for Senator Reid's plan to force cloture on the bill tomorrow (Thursday, June 28th) and a final vote on Friday (June 29th).
It has been my understanding that under Senate rules, the failure to table any one of the 27 amendments would force a two-day delay in the entire process.
Details to follow as soon as I have them.
