Absolutely. The House and Senate are agreeing on the major terms of the law, basically working from the same version. The House passed the Senate's suggestions. The Senate will agree with their own wording, so this should pass. Everybody's looking for a win here.

Now we can begin planning for the new rules of the game. The timing is still up in the air, but the count down is on.

But yeah, sloppy journalism.



Well, I don't know. As a commentator said in the news cycle, this is basically the same crowd-funding bill that already passed the house, but has been tied up in the Senate where there are three competing proposals, each very different from the house in details. Hopefully this momentum will cause one of the otherwise stalled Senate bills to be put to a vote, but reconciliation of the two versions might not be a simple process.


Hah. I came here to post, "This makes far too much sense, are we sure Congress really passed this?"
