This is the final vote and is expected to pass. If passed it goes to the House. Then to Biden.
I have heard a few R's voting "aye". All we need is 51 votes so looks good.

Theyre on recess all August.

I thought I read that. And the $3.5 Trillion spending bill is going to be voted on this week too I think.

(18,731 posts)6. They're now voting to proceed to debate on the $3.5 Trillion spending bill.
I think all it takes is 50+Kamala to begin debate.

(49,150 posts)7. SC Sen. Tim Scott, reportedly a 2024 presidential hopeful, votes "no".
I hope this no vote will come back to bite him in his ass.
