Congress has not agreed.

You have a "bipartisan group of Senators" who have agreed to a framework, with issues to work out.

No vote on these measures has occurred, and it's passed neither House nor Senate, which would be required for your claim "Congress agrees to overhaul" to be true.

Nothing.
It's all just more Trumpist wool being pulled over people's eyes. Or attempted to being pulled.

So basically this "overhaul" is performative, not substantive.

Majority has agreed so it will pass.
