English please lol it’s kind of confusing .

Vote for the bill

Yup, sounds about right. Like I mentioned there will be a vote...now for the result. Not looking too good though.

i believe it will pass the Senate with 65+ votes but die in the house like CIR 2013.

At this point they might as well just focus on an extension because I do not see them putting up a bill that willl be approved by Trump. It will be such a waste of time to put a bill on the floor knowing damn well it will be destined to fail.

Is it 50 or 60 votes to pass the senate?

60 votes, unless Mitch decides to go nuclear in which he won’t.

I thought the tax bill was 51

They were able to pass the tax bill with a simple majority because of the Byrd Rule, which is condition of the “budget reconciliation” process that allows Republicans to pass legislation with only 51 votes in the Senate. Congress uses this process to fast-track passage of laws related to spending and revenue, which the GOP has used for their tax reform bill. Only a simple majority vote is required.
