I think Dean is right. It should be handled as best as possible with
reconciliation.

My understanding is that the reconciliation process is after a bill is
approved and is then
negotiated and adjusted with consideration to budgets. You can't have
reconciliation on the
pertinent points of a bill during the voting process. There's nothing to
reconciliate. (if that's a word)

Actually, you can.

The Byrd Rule (which is supposed to limit its use) is just a convention,
which has been ignored before.
