He-he-he, right up against the next vote to increase the borrowing limit....nice.

They probably could not have planned that better.

Not a done Deal? House?

Senate votes on finished and reconciled bill (complete with first post in thread, House already voted and passed).

Heads to Presidents desk for signing (Status)

Anyways that is my understanding, correct me if I am wrong....actually I don't know why I even wrote this last sentence.....unnecessary.

i can't imagine this House not having passing this bill with the full Amtrak funding intact.  Is there anyone who thinks this President wouldn't sign it?

The House will pass. No problem.

But as previously noted, this 'completely' funds Gateway and the Baltimore tunnel -- even if ridiculously overpriced and nearly as slow as what's being replaced.

We ought to rejoice that's getting done.  However the funds get paid out...

$66 Billion allocated to Amtrak and Amtrak related projects in the final bill.    Still no dedicated trust fund setup.    So again back to yearly appropriations.
