Senate passed their revised version by 50 to 49 (One (R) Senator was absent for a funeral) on March 6th. That is about as close as close can be.
Now the House will vote soon on the version revised by the Senate…if there are no big hick-ups it will go to the President to sign (who has said he will).
“The House will take a procedural vote later Tuesday before moving to final passage of the plan, expected Wednesday, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer’s office said.

“The COVID-19 relief package provides $1,400 direct payments to individuals making up to $75,000 annually, $350 billion in aid to state and local governments — a sticking point in past negotiations between Republicans and Democrats — and $14 billion for vaccine distribution. The measure also includes an additional $300 in weekly jobless benefits through September and a child allowance of up to $3,600 per family.”
