It now has to reconcile the measure with a separate, $4.5 billion aid bill passed by Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi also said she would not take up the Senate-approved plan, telling reporters "there are some improvements that we think can be reconciled," according to NBC News.
