After the Senate convened, we reached an agreement to consider the TRIA legislation. Under the agreement, there will be 2 roll call votes beginning at 1:45pm today. Those votes will be in relation to the Warren amendment and passage of the TRIA bill, as amended, if amended. Each are subject to a 60-majority vote threshold. No other amendments or motions are in order to the bill, aside from budget points of order, if applicable. Senator McConnell then moved to proceed to Calendar #1, S.1, a bill to approve the Keystone XL pipeline.
1:45pm-2 roll call votes:
- Warren substitute amendment (TRIA minus end user provision)
- Passage of H..R.26, Terrorism Risk Insurance Act, as amended, if amended.
