H.R.3684 - INVEST in America Act - https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/3684

(remember that since the power of the purse resides in the House, all money bills have to originate (or appear to originate) from the House)

NOW the Senate is going to debate it (now that they invoked cloture) and will probably amend it and if they do, it will have to go back to the House again for consideration.

ETA - they will probably use that House bill to amend their version onto it as a "substitute" and send it back to the House (again to preserve the Constitutional requirement that money bills originate from the House)
