The “clean” CR originated in the House and was passed by them. It then went to the Senate for consideration. It was brought up for a vote 13 times (or 14 now?), and the majority of the Senate voted to pass it. But due to the Senate’s “filibuster” rule, they did not reach the 60-vote threshold required to advance the bill to President Trump for signature. If the Senate would pass the bill as sent to them by the House, Trump would sign it immediately. It does NOT need to go back to the House again.

You literally just need a handful of Democrat senators to put country over party and vote to pass the bill.
