from the article:

President Obama and his Republican allies aren't giving up. They held a vote on TPA right after the failure of TAA, passing it by a vote of 219-211. And the House is expected to hold another vote on TAA next week. If that fails, then Obama might try to pass the House bill — without TAA — through the Senate.
