Anyone know how this is possible? I thought spending bills must originate in the House. Or is that just me letting the Constitution get in the way of Congress do whatever they want?

I would love to see what exactly is in this bill, but it sounds like we won't have much time to do so before they try to run it up for a vote. I would like to withhold judgment until I see the bill contents, but this is thing sounds like another game of pass it before anyone can read it.

Get ready to flood the Senate with calls tomorrow (at least asking WTH they're voting on).
