The Senate passed a “continuing resolution” avoiding a government shutdown. This means that the Senate is likely to adjourn at the end of this week and return for a post-election “lameduck” session where we will have another opportunity to get S 2680 passed. It will be critical to press Senators throughout October to pass S 2680 in the “lameduck” session.
