Early #FF (no idea if it's still a thing) to @meredithllee @nicholaswu12 @ben_guggenheim @ktullymcmanus @Reporter_Mia @cassandra_dumay + army of other POLITICO's for all the House OBBB news. (Like the Senate, I am OOO until 7/7 and will not return early just because House Rs ask).

@ben_guggenheim House GOP also believed, and were told by leadership, that Senate would soften their Medicaid language, which helped nervous mods get on board. The exact opposite happened -- even as Johnson tried to reassure members last week that the Senate would make changes before passage.

ICYMI: House GOP banked on Senate fixing their megabill. They 'miscalculated' . Lots of scoopy bits w/ @ben_guggenheim: .-Hawley was coming back to DC privately ready to accept House provider tax--then Finance text made him pivot.-Elon's Thune outreach.

Thune indicates to me trying to win over a Rand was an option on the table as they tried to shore up the votes: . "We had multiple strategies in place" . (Rand ended up voting no and they got Murk).

đź‘€ Thune asked if Murkowski is a no:. "We'll find out". Asked after meeting with Rand if they are thinking about dropping off debt ceiling, he says they are having convos with colleagues.

Senate bill has sparked a lot of heartburn on House side, where Johnson and Trump will need to muscle it through . Senate bill also made round of changes in final hours of negotiations in order to shore up the votes . Does he have the votes? "Let's hope so".

Republicans think Senate conservatives are dropping their push for an FMAP amendment vote. The amendment was expected to fall short -- no word from RonJon/Rick Scott yet.

Vice President JD Vance is on his way to the Capitol as Senate GOP tries to get OBBB across finish line after a long night. Leaders still actively working Murk, who they would prefer to get over bending to Rand on debt ceiling.
