The Senate late Thursday approved a short-term extension of unemployment benefits, ending an impasse that had dragged on for weeks.
But the issue could come up again in less than a month. The Senate voted 59-38 to extend the benefits until May 5, when they might have to be extended again. The measure now moves to the House.
The Senate moved to a final vote after breaking a GOP procedural objection in a 60-38 vote.

It's still only May 5, which means Congress is going to have to extend the benefit filing date again and again.
