WASHINGTON--The Senate Democrats have the votes to rebuff a GOP bid, led by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to repeal all of President Obama's signature health care law. I'm told there are no Democratic defections expected when the vote takes place later Wednesday.
Both Democrats and Republicans agree that a IRS 1099 reporting requirement in the law should be repealed; both sides and President Obama agreed the paperwork burden was a mistake.
