There’s no way that the House rejects it.
I was criticized in a thread about the cloture vote on Ukraine funding a couple of days ago.
Kennedy and Cassidy will not vote for Ukraine funding per se. It will pass the senate without a super majority.
But it was Kennedy and Cassidy that greased the skids on cloture to allow this to happen.
I really do not believe people understand the cloture vote shell game in the senate. It allows passage of a bill with a simple majority and simultaneously gives cover to senators like Kennedy and Cassidy to say to Louisiana voters, "I voted against Ukraine funding. I care about the American people."
Meanwhile the fix was in when they helped pass cloture.
