Senate Democrats haven't yet ruled out a procedural maneuver that bypasses the 60-vote threshold to pass bills in the Senate, according to Reid. "Everything is an option," he said, when asked about the tactic called reconciliation.
Reconciliation would be a difficult choice for Democrats in passing health-care legislation. It is a divisive move that would sour already poor relationships with Republicans.
The tactic also would require Democrats to alter several parts of the package, making it more difficult to win House approval.
