Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said that a vote allocating an additional $2 billion for the popular “Cash For Clunkers” program could come to the Senate floor as soon as Thursday.

“I can envision doing my very best to get this passed today,” Reid said during a press conference Thursday.

While a number of amendments have been proposed to tweak the program, the Senate Majority Leader said that they would not be adopted.

“We all know that if we change the bill it will die,” Reid said.
