Senate votes to end the national Covid-19 emergency declared in 2020. It now goes to President Biden's desk for his signature.
The final vote was overwhelmingly bipartisan, 68-23. The joint resolution, which cleared the House earlier this year, now heads to President Joe Biden’s desk. The vote comes on the heels of two other successful efforts led by Republicans in approving legislation rescinding Biden administration policies.
While the lack of an explicit veto threat left the possibility of Biden signing the measure a clear, if not likely, option, Biden’s ultimate decision to sign the bill marked another moment where House Democrats have privately voiced frustration that the lack of clarity – or outright messaging mishap – from the White House left lawmakers in a lurch.
