I thought that the below was the only bill but evidently there was two of them. The US Senate is dysfunctional.
The other one is covered in this thread.

The Democrats are too greedy to help out the Working Class, and this is the evidence of that.
They instead insisted, unsuccessfully, for massive subsidies for insurance concerns.
Damn shame that McCain put the kibosh on Trumpcare in 2017. Trumpcare would have provided tremendous healthcare, with unparalelled choices and savings you would have to see to believe.
Unfortunately, McCain was a spiteful man who hated Trump, and voted for the ACA.

Good. One giveaway program is NO DIFFERENT from another giveaway program. Healthcare and insurance are not part of GOVERNING.

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are designed to lower healthcare costs by allowing individuals to save part of their paycheck before taxes. The funds in HSAs can be used for eligible expenses such as doctor or hospital bills or prescription drugs. This approach empowers patients to manage their healthcare costs more effectively and can potentially reduce the financial burden on consumers.
While I might agree with your statement to a point that money would have not been counted as income and would inspire more participation in HSA plans.

An interesting viewpoint.

Let me get this straight. The republican plan is to give $1500 to every taxpayer for their private HSA? Is that correct? That is a far cry from allowing pre-tax dollars to be used in an HSA. It is a $1500 giveaway of taxpayer $$$$. This giveaway garbage has got to stop. If the gov't doesn't get an ROI, scrap it.

Correction: The GOP plan was filibustered by the Democrats. The Democrat plan was defeated by majority vote.

Both bills got 51 aye votes.
Did the Democrats filibuster their own bill?

No.
Why did it require 60 votes?
