It was a promising first step, one worth savoring. Congress often moves slowly, and there still is a long way to go.

The bill now is eligible for a House vote, but when that will happen is difficult to predict. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., will make that decision. The Senate also must pass similar legislation. So far, a similar bill has not yet been introduced.
