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.

“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 measure also includes an additional $300 in weekly jobless benefits through September and a child allowance of up to $3,600 per family.”
