an hour from now the senate will come back in here to keep marking up the senate bill. the person in charge, senator orrin hatch, explains including the mandate like this. by scrapping this unpopular tax from an unworkable law we not only ease the financial burdens associated with the mandate but also generate additional revenue to provide more tax relief to these individuals. but democratic leader chuck schumer counters with this. he says rather than learning the lessons from their failure to repeal healthcare, republicans are doubling down on the same partisan strategy that would throw our healthcare system into chaos. if the american people were not already outraged by this bill, injecting healthcare into it will certainly do the trick. again, the house is planning to vote on their version tomorrow. but it is already done and it is not going to include the repeal of the mandate. >> sandra: peter, do republicans have the votes to repeal the mandate as part of tax reform? >> it sounds like they'll have at least one vote that they did not have for healthcare. that's ala
