No thread here yet? Zero fucks given?

I haven't been following this closely other than headlines but on the surface at least it looks like progress and assuming Trump signs it it will be something he has done that doesn't make me want to punch kittens in the face. Only complaint I suppose is that it doesn't go far enough, especially regarding the war on drugs, but that is really a whole other animal that needs to be addressed elsewhere.
Anyway, is this a good thing or a nothingburger? Does Trump deserve any credit for this other than for not vetoing it? I know he mentioned it during the dumpster fire meeting with Chuck & Nancy, but did he actually have any influence in this?
