Senate passes cybersecurity bill CISA by a vote of 74-21

  > On Tuesday afternoon, the Senate voted 74 to 21 to pass a version of CISA that roughly mirrors legislation passed in the House earlier this year, paving the way for some combined version of the security bill to become law. Doesn't any version of a bill have to pass both the House and Senate before it is sent to the President for signing? Is there a shortcut to merge two versions without re-votes? (Edit) There is apparently a conference committee now according to the EFF. More discussion at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10461526 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10461526
