MODERATORS
If they were rushing through the bill then any amendments in the senate would require the bill to go back to the house. Partially explains the reluctance to consider amendments (though why bother with debate then).
Depressingly
Most of whom probably don't care how it was passed or details on the amendments.
The bill was passed by the Senate after amendments. It had to go back to the House anyway. They just chose not to pass many of these quite common sense amendments raised by one of their own members (Matt Canavan), meaning they had plenty of time to consider their opinion and would have voted on it with that prior understanding in mind; they're not being blindsided by something they have yet to have a chance to fully form an opinion on. The House received the Senate's amended Bill and passed it within minutes.
Nevermind then. I wasn't giving them much credit but it was still too much it seems.
