<1%becomes law moderate confidencepending: Senate on_calendar

Keep America Flying Act — on the calendar, quiet for 227 days; <1% to reach the floor, <1% to become law.

98%

<1%

becomes law

The gap: on the floor this would pass — 50% by the member-vote simulation — but the floor is the hard part: <1% to ever get the vote. That gap, not the whip count, is the story.

If it reaches the floor

majority

60 (cloture)

Projected 66 yea of 100 voting; 90% interval 46–94 (quartiles 53–83). Intervals are backtest-verified to cover ~90%.

Filibusterable: the realistic Senate line is 60 votes — P(≥60) = 50% (simple-majority P = 93%).

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%	69 [47–96]	94%
passage	95%	66 [46–94]	93%
