The Vote on the Rule will be coming up in a few minutes - the final vote should echo it
Edited on Sun Mar-21-10 05:06 PM by ThomWV
The final Bill's vote should be very similar to the vote to accept the Rule.

This one matters.

On edit: There is a 5-minute procedural vote going on now, the vote on the Rule will follow, it will be a 15 minute vote when it happens. Very important and watch which democrats vote against it.

4. Here we go!
There will be two more short votes after the Rule vote but this is the one that says if the Bill goes forward or not.

6. This is the vote that establishes the rules of debate on the final bill
It says how long they speak and what if any amendments may be proposed and when the vote will take place I believe.
