UPDATE2: June 1

The Senate began voting Thursday evening on the debt ceiling bill that passed the House a day earlier, with the US creeping closer to the June 5 deadline to avert a potential federal default. Senators plan to hold a series of votes on amendments to the debt ceiling bill, all of which are expected to fail. Once that vote series is complete, the Senate will then move on to the final passage of the bill.

WASHINGTON - The House approved a debt ceiling and budget cuts package late Wednesday on a 314-117 vote. Few lawmakers liked the package but was better than the alternative of devastating economic upheaval. With passage, the bill heads to the Senate where passage is expected by week’s end.

Earlier: The "Fiscal Responsibility Act" cleared its first major hurdle Tuesday when the House Rules Committee advanced the bill on a 7-6 vote. A subsequent vote to begin debate on the bill Wednesday afternoon was approved on a 241-187 vote. 

A full floor vote is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. Central time tonight. 

The legislation is expected to pass, but frustration among both parties has seen leaders working the clock to shore up enough votes.
