bill 法案
参考了新闻,才理解这句的意思
Louisiana Bill Comes Up Short 意思是 路易西安那法案差一点就被通过/被颁布
新闻原文
On April 25th, the legislation failed to garner enough votes to pass through to the Senate. Coming up two votes short, the legislation, known as House Bill 1149, would have legalized charity tournament events and local "bar poker" tournaments throughout the state. The discussion of the bill perhaps was where the biggest battles were drawn and show the continued debate over poker in America today.
因为大意是 法案没有获得足够投票而以一点点之差早成未被通过.

come up short: 未能达到预期目标/愿望, 虽然没有完全失败, 但结果令人失望 to fail to meet expectations, to fall short of a goal or aspiration. Not to fail entirely, but to disappoint.
