I would disagree to a certain extent. The numerous Senate bills are so pork ridden I can hardly remember what the original purpose for most of these bills actually are.
I would agree to a certain extent. The bill does show that there is a growing support for the democracts but 50-48 is not a large margin to pass a bill by especially since things such as special interest groups could put pressure on the Senate to vote one way or another
