The Senate is in recess until 8pm US Eastern time. It looks like there are now plenty enough votes to reopen the government. Not over ’til its over though I guess. I’ll keep tabs on this until the vote passes. Or not!

The bill will have to go to the House of course, and there is plenty of noise being made about how it’ll face opposition there. I suspect it’ll gt passed, there seems to be enough pressure on now.
