>>8806432 last bread Congress Continuing Resolutions
Also the way Congress gets around the Consitution that all bills of revenue shall originate in the House.
If the bill raising revenue (implementing a tax) is not expected to pass in the House, the pass a simple bill that many will agree on. Then in the Senate, they pass an amendment to rplce the text of the bill. Once amendents are approved, a final amendment will change the bill name. Then it is sent back to the House and vote to approve the amendments. (Those who were on the fence since worn down or threatened).
Two examples:
111the Congress HR 3590 "Servicemember's Home Ownership Tax Credit of 2009" (as introduced passed unanimous in the House)
