  1. Just a reminder, since we have been so bogged down in the bizarre Rules of the Senate for 6 weeks....HR 3548 originally passed through the House under Suspension Rules

    It allows for a swift passage of 'non-controversial bills', debate is limited to 40 minutes, no amendments can be offered to the motion or the underlying matter, and a 2/3 majority is required to agree to the motion.

    Schedule says first vote is expected around 11-12 tomorrow, last vote expected 5-6.

    Good luck, hope y'all are able to get some much needed sleep tonight!!
