Not happening before the election, after all:
Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) told reporters that Republican threats to block a vote unless Democrats extend all the tax cuts, including for the wealthy, make the timing impossible.

And the House wants the Senate to vote first, meaning, it seems, no votes until the lame duck session.
