Is there an article listing all the various provisions? This is the closest I could find:

That's the best one I've seen.  Thanks for sharing.

The bill just passed the House 219-206.

Nothing going on in the Senate yet.  Just some people standing around towards the front of the chamber.

I don't want the shut down or less restrictions on campaign donations. If it does shut down at least it will be for a respectable reason.

I do. Every "Democrat" in the House who voted for this (who didn't get beaten in the House) deserves to be primaried.

Obama had better veto this,

I hope you realize that there's no way that's happening.

I was confused earlier; the House also passed a two-day CR to give the Senate an opportunity to debate the bill.

LOL, I tuned into Fox News for a bit, and Sean Hannity and his panel were bashing Boehner for "not standing up to Obama on immigration," or something like that.  Lol.

…and the Senate has adjourned for tonight.  We'll see what happens tomorrow.  Good night, folks.
