Yup, that's the house version AFTER conference, AFTER Senate and AFTER
consolidation.

The House is supposed to get 48 HOURS to review ANY piece of
legislation prior to taking a vote on it.

"(9)(a)(1) It shall not be in order to vote on the adoption of a
report of a committee of conference unless such report has been
available to Members and to the general public for at least 48 hours
before such vote. If a point of order is sustained under this
paragraph, then the conference report shall be set aside."

Yes, further down there are clauses to rescind that rule with a motion
of order but to my knowledge no motion was set and passed by the 3/5
needed in the Senate.

So yes, it's out there but the rules state there has to be a wait
time.  As it is, with 48 hours and that many pages it would take a
team of staffers the full two days to read the damn thing!
