The vote, broken down

Failed 47–51.

How your senators voted

  • 2 senators voted against most of their party

    Fetterman does it about 1 in 5 votes, Paul about 1 in 6.

  • It would have failed either way

    3 of the 51 who voted no (50 Republicans and 1 Democrat) switching to yes would have made it pass. 2 would have tied it, leaving it to the Vice President.

    As voted
    47–51 Fails
    If the 2 who voted against most of their party had voted with it
    47–51 Fails
    If the 2 who didn't vote had voted with their party
    47–53 Fails
    If both had happened
    47–53 Fails
