which hasn't been working on a companion bill so far as I know
Companion bills simply speed the process along slightly by getting language 'approved' in both houses.

It still has to go to a house-senate resolution committee to make the versions agree.

Any change to the now passed house bill the senate makes put it back into the house for another go-round.

It is very likely to die in the senate, and Obongo will never sign it if it does pass both houses.
