Passed in the House 107 to 1 (details)
To send the bill on to the Senate "stripped" of all actual appropriations, leaving it as a "template" or "placeholder." This vote is basically a procedural method of launching negotiations to work out the differences between the House and Senate budgets. The House has actually passed its version of the full budget in two "omnibus" bills, House Bills 5578 and 5579.
Referred to the Committee of the Whole
Passed in the Senate 26 to 10 (details)

Failed in the House 0 to 109 (details)
To concur with the Senate-passed version of the bill.
