Aren’t all spending bills supposed to originate in the House? If so, seems this bill is illegal or unconstitutional.
“Illegal” and “unconstitutional” are synonyms.
It did originate in the House as H.R. 2872...went to the Senate and after minor revisions and a vote, it was sent BACK to the House for final vote.
All funding bills do originate in the House.
Bills from the House earlier this year dealing with funding may have died in the Senate, or gotten tabled without a vote. Then for moments like this they are brought forth and amended in a way that the original content disappears and the new content is the bill.
Perfectly normal.
Amen
