Is there a rough timeframe for when the vote will go down? Want to try and structure my lunch break time around watching.
Might even save some money on lunch if I lose my appetite.

On CSPAN they say about 12:30 Eastern, 9:30 Pacific, but that will be delayed a bit. 1:15 Eastern sounds more likely.

And then Senate isn't supposed to vote on it until Thursday. So why the damned urgency in the house?

I'm starting to believe the House is not going to pass it. There is overwhelming opposition to this bill from what I've seen watching CSPAN. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

That would be awesome.

It has to begin in the House, because it's an appropriation. The Senate is already in the tank, so gives them plenty of time to twist arms if it doesn't pass the first time. If at first...
