WaPo's report is here and HuffPo's here. Paul Krugman in the Times writes about how the GOP doesn't see real problems like climate change, but in this case they see a problem that doesn't exist.

UPDATE: The Hill reports here that McConnell has suggested dropping liability protection and state and local funding from the bill.
