I think this may allay our concerns. Bottom line, the WH will not receive the document until the end of the month.

“HR82 was passed by the US Senate by a vote of 76-20 early Saturday morning. The bill passed on a clean vote, without amendment. It is now in the process of being formally submitted to President Biden for his approval.
On Tuesday morning (12/24), the US House of Representatives read into the Congressional record that HR82 had been approved by the US Senate. It was then signed by the Speaker of the House. Once signed by the Senate President the bill, having been approved by both the House and Senate, will officially be sent to the president. This will happen on either 12/30-31.
Once the president receives the official documents, he then has 10 calendar days in which to act.
President Biden is on record as supporting the legislation”.
