Budget Reconciliation Bill Still in Question

Congress thought it had passed the Budget Reconciliation bill. The President signed it. Part of the bill requires staged payments of SSI back benefits that total more than three months of benefits. However, one little problem was noticed after the fact. The versions passed by the House of Representatives and the Senate were not exactly the same. The Senate agreed to a concurrent resolution that they thought would solve the problem, but House Democrats are unwilling to agree. The whole issue is still up in the air, according to The Hill.
