The $1 billion Senate bill for “security upgrades “ was meant to provide the legal argument that Congress had now “approved” the ballroom. (So the court would allow it and Republicans could say they “didn’t vote for no steenken’ ballroom!”). That bill died, and unless the Senate tries reconciliation again, it’s dead. (No guarantee the House would vote for it, anyway. And the next Congress could repeal any authorization and order it be torn down.  Hope springs eternal.)
