House leadership cancels Thursday vote.
Looks for way to change bill to get a majority via Rules Committee.
Conservative movement divided.
And the clock ticks towards 8/2.
Halperin's Take
House leadership was afraid (and/or smart). Pulling the bill is bad; a loss would probably be worse. Now the GOP Establishment has to decide what to make of members who wouldn't give the Speaker what he said he must have. The media will savage the GOP now for failure and for eating up time.
