If the bill is passed in the Senate, which it probably will, because it differs from the House bill, MarineCombatEngineer Monday #14

Hmmm, that's a good question. MarineCombatEngineer Monday #17

There were some rethugs that really want that EPSTEIN file released as well. Maybe they could F UP the plans to pass this? I know these are Senate Rethugs but does the house have to pass this as well?

wouldn't Thune have to bring it to the floor for a revote?
If that's the case, then it ain't going to happen.
The repigs got what they wanted, they're not going to risk a reversal of this cave in.
