@HouseAdm_Dems @GKButterfield Re: question on timing from @nicholaswu12, (the House isn't scheduled to vote again until September 20) Butterfield says HR. 4 could be introduced in a pro forma session and voted on if the House is called back before then to vote on other things (like infra/reconciliation)
