It's intended to pass through budget reconciliation, a legislative maneuver allowing Democrats to sidestep GOP resistance and approve legislation with a simple majority vote. Democrats employed the tactic to pass President Joe Biden's stimulus law as well as the House-approved Build Back Better bill that later died in the 50-50 Senate. This WILL get to house floor this fall and likely pass. Don't blink, because this one would be ignored by SCOTUS as it's a taxation issue - remember Obamacare?
