They need to get this done
Why are they all of a sudden in a rush to get this done? Are they about to go on a break or are they trying to move on to something else?

Biden is going to some summit or something. I think that has something to do with it.
VA and NJ elections was a big reason for Tuesday as well.
The logic being if Biden is out of the country and can't get there on the ground at least have some bills we can point to as a success.

would've been helpful at cop26 as well granted it sounds like China, Russia, Saudi, and India came with less than us
How much does this actually harm consumers though?
People on Medicare get their hearing aids and those who aren't or are using an FSA can purchase them OTC and not have to use a doctor's visit.
Serious question.
The problem is the barrier to entry for competitors is closed if they can’t access the Medicare market. Stoller points out independent audiologists would be harmed.
So you’d be at the mercy of the Hearing Network Alliance cartel

Manchin (along with Sinema) is tanking both bills. If he would have stopped this fukkery the BIF would have passed the House months ago.
But of course this is somehow Bernie and the progressives' fault.

.Then he had the audacity to end his press conference by saying the Dems need to 'stop playing games' when he and Sinema are literally the only two Dems playing games. Both bills could have passed months ago if he weren't such a dikkriding fakkit who loves the attention.

John Harwood is one of the only honest people in mainstream media about this issue.
He just brought up that the House was already ready to pass the BIF then Manchin had to run his mouth at this press conference now it'll probably delay the vote even further.
