The House just passed the COVID-relief bill paired with the bigger Omnibus spending bill by an overwhelming majority:
#Breaking: 359-53, House approves a sweeping $900 billion covid relief package – tied together with a $1.4 trillion spending bill to keep the government open through September. The 5,593-page bill, which was unveiled about seven hours ago, now goes to the Senate.

I’ve been looking for the roll call to see who those 53 were, but so far it’s not out yet. I’ll link it here as soon as it becomes available.
But given the fact that none of them had a chance to even read the bill, I’m sure that it’s chocked full pork and money for Dem states to keep them afloat. Just a disgusting process.
Now it goes to the Senate where they are sure to pass it without reading it too.
UPDATE: Here’s the roll call vote.
