The final bill dropped restrictions on trade with China, which would be a problem for Musk's Tesla production.

5. Sen Kaine's abysmal take on what the Senate passed

Democrats in the House and Senate have criticized Republicans over the last few days for taking out key provisions from the bipartisan deal, most notably pediatric cancer funding. However, the legislation that passed the Senate tonight is not exactly the same as the language in the original deal and is ultimately less money overall, per Kaine.

Scroll waaaay down or searxh for Kaine.

All that said, Dems did a great job getting anything passed.
