If it passes the Senate, it goes back to the House. Speaker Johnson has said he will respect the "72-hour rule" and wait three days before voting.
If the House passes it as is, it goes to Trump to be signed. If the House changes anything, it needs to go back to the Senate.

They're going to use this vote to run ads like "senator x voted to find sex changes for children to mutilate them." It's going to be vicious but the reality is the Republicans are trying to remove Healthcare for every trans person on medicaid in the country.

This means that Democrats will have to raise a point of order on this part of the bill. This would force a vote on the amendment that would require 60 votes. Republicans have 53 Senate seats, so it means they would need to pick off 7 Democrats for this.

It's a 4,300 word polemic filled with conspiracy theories, victim blaming, disinformation, and factual inaccuracies. Just what you'd expect from the Times. It's fully in line with their editorial stance of victim blaming the LGBTQ community for its own oppression.
