How likely is it that the bill to end the per-country caps gets signed into law?

Answer

It is very hard to say whether the Fairness for High Skilled Immigrants Act has a reasonable chance of being passed in the near future. The House and the Senate each passed different versions of the bill, and they do not have a lot of time left to get together and reach a compromise. The current Congressional session is expected to end within a couple of weeks (likely on December 18, 2020.) If that happens before a compromise is reached, the bill dies and it would be up to the next Congress to potentially reintroduce the bill. (03.Dec.2020).
