The gap: on the floor this would pass — 73% by the member-vote simulation — but the floor is the hard part: 4% to ever get the vote. That gap, not the whip count, is the story.

60 (cloture)

Projected 73 yea of 100 voting; 90% interval 49–97 (quartiles 59–90). Intervals are backtest-verified to cover ~90%.

Filibusterable: the realistic Senate line is 60 votes — P(≥60) = 73% (simple-majority P = 95%).

By floor procedure

No vote is scheduled, so the headline marginalizes over how the Senate would take it up; the branches:

Procedure	Likelihood	Projected yea	Passes
conference	5%	75 [50–97]	96%
passage	95%	73 [48–97]	95%
