The bill, which needed approval from two-thirds of the chamber, passed overwhelmingly in a 366 to 34 vote.

The differences between this and the (yesterday) clean CR bill:

1."Trump wanted a debt limit increase, and now we're bringing the exact same bill to the floor without the debt limit increase," Massie said. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky.

2. just over $100 billion in disaster relief aid for victims of storms Helene and Milton,

3. as well as assistance for the agriculture industry.

I'd call that a damn good result for Speaker Johnson.
