Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) told TPM on Thursday that final passage of the Violence Against Women Act is on deck for late afternoon or Friday morning at the latest.

“I feel very confident that we will come out of today with a very strong bipartisan support for a very strong bill just as we have in the past,” she said.

The Senate voted 85-8 earlier this week to move forward with the bill.
