Passage outlook
Contested because it's a Senate public bill (which rarely passes), it's at committee.
Historically 10–30% of comparable federal bills became law (base rate 19%, n=103).
A transparent, rule-based outlook from bill type, stage, and verified government standing — not a guaranteed prediction.
