Projected 64 yea of 100 voting; 90% interval 42–95 (quartiles 52–79). Intervals are backtest-verified to cover ~90%.

Filibusterable: the realistic Senate line is 60 votes — P(≥60) = 46% (simple-majority P = 91%).

Procedure	Likelihood	Projected yea	Passes
conference	5%	64 [37–95]	90%
passage	95%	64 [42–94]	91%
