important technicality, it was the House who voted for it overwhelmingly.

That bill now sits, with many other bills, waiting for the Senate to vote on it, before it could become law.

The GOP not been allowing many House bills to come to a Senate vote, because they have been obstructing everything. There is a huge backlog. When this bill comes, the GOP has already said they will not allow it to come to a vote. They will filibuster it.
