Official text

Chances of passing

Worked out from the bill's type, its stage and the government's verified standing; for a federal bill, its passage range sets the band. It is not a guarantee.

Contested because it has stalled far longer than bills that passed.

Adjusted for this bill's current pace: 45–50% (the unadjusted historical base rate for comparable federal bills is 79%). It has gone quiet at this stage, so the adjusted range sits entirely below the historical rate.
