I just made it under.
I got dinged on the first one... I won $19k at a slot machine which reduced my stim check by a couples hundred.
I still came out ahead.

(639 posts)Once the Senate votes on it's final version, that gets sent back to the House for it's final approval.
IF, and I MEAN IF... it does pass both houses and is approved. That is where the actual final cap number is declared.
It has to be law to exists, everything up to that point, is speculation.
It's always reliant on the legislative process of approval.
That will be a big news day for it, so all I can suggest is keep watching in DU and your national newspapers.
