I just asked Grok: as of July 2, 2025, the House was still in the process of voting on a procedural rule to take up the Senate's amended version of the bill, with some Republican opposition threatening its final passage. There is no definitive confirmation in the available information that the House has passed the Senate's amended version of the bill as of my last update
Is the bill dead? Not necessarily. A failed vote on the amended resolution means the amended version of the OBBBA is stalled and cannot proceed in its current form. However, the original OBBBA, which passed the House on May 22, 2025, by a 215–214–1 vote, remains alive as the House’s baseline position. The bill isn’t fully dead unless both chambers abandon it entirely, which hasn’t happened yet.
Is there still hope of passage? Yes, there is hope. The House can reconsider the amended version with further adjustments or a revote after securing additional support (likely one or two votes given the original margin). The Senate, having passed its version with Vice President JD Vance’s tie-breaker, could also negotiate a compromise. The ongoing negotiations noted in the July 2 procedural vote (the "longest vote in House history") suggest active efforts to salvage the bill. The holiday timing (July 03–04) may delay action, but post-weekend reconsideration is feasible.
In short: The amended bill is stalled, but the OBBBA itself is not dead, and passage remains possible with further legislative action. Check the House Clerk’s website (clerk.house.gov) for the latest vote details to confirm the next steps.
So it gets sent back to the Senate or it goes to Trumps desk?
Going to Trump
Yay!!!
