Cut, Cap And Balance: House Passes Tea Party-Backed Debt Ceiling Plan
House Republicans easily passed their "Cut, Cap and Balance" fiscal plan on Tuesday, a proposal that boosts their standing among Tea Party supporters but has no chance of becoming law.
The bill passed, 234 to 190, on a largely partisan vote.
Both parties know the bill has next to no chance of passing the Democratic-controlled Senate, and President Barack Obama has already threatened a veto. But Republicans have pushed for a record vote on it ahead of the 2012 elections.
Democrats spent much of Tuesday's four-hour debate bashing Republicans for wasting time on a political stunt.

makes drastic spending cuts in areas that Democrats have prioritized as opportunities for investment: clean energy, infrastructure, education and job training. The biggest concern for Democrats, however, is the bill's proposal to gut Medicaid funding by one-third over the next decade.
