It looks like Democrats in both chambers are using every delay tactic they have to little fanfare here.
This hearing has surpassed 18 hours. Dems are still testifying and offering amendments.
A bit ago, Rep. Shontel Brown (D-Ohio) offered an amendment to strike an insane work req provision apparently in the bill: it lowers the age of a "dependent child" from 18 to 7 years old.
