On Wednesday Feb. 12, the Senate Budget Committee advanced a fiscal year (FY) 2025 budget resolution by a vote of 11-10. The Senate voted to move forward with debate on the resolution on Tuesday, Feb. 18, triggering a statutorily required 50 hours of debate. Once the time for debate expires, the Senate enters the amendments portion of the budget resolution process commonly known as a “vote-a-rama.” During this phase, the rules allow senators to propose modifications to the resolution until their list, or their will to continue, is exhausted. Once amendment votes are completed, which is expected to occur sometime Friday morning, the Senate will pass the budget resolution.
