15. Currently 58 no, 42 yes. Sanders is the first in a vote-a-rama, a long series of

roll call votes on various amendments to the bill. making official what's already been decided. These molasses hours don't show of course the many long hours of hard work by many people went into creating this important bill with over 6000 pages.

March 15: In 9 days now various unemployment benefits expire and their lifeline checks stop, so this needs to be completed and signed by President Biden by then.
