Here's the Senate vote:
Tuberville and Paul would have voted against the bill, but for whatever reason didn't vote. Tim Scott didn't vote either, but said he supported the bill.
So we have 17 good Republican Senators, and 32 bad ones. That's a great improvement since Trump started the MAGA movement. We really should appreciate what a great achievement that is! And more than half of Republican Representatives voted against the bill. Also, more good Senators will come in after 2024. Sen. Braun, who voted against the bill, will be replaced by Rep. Banks who also voted against it in the House. MT and OH are going to gain Trump-endorsed, MAGA-aligned Republican Senators. Unfortunately, I think WV is going to get a RINO to replace Manchin. Assuming at minimum 3 Republican pickups, the ratio after 2024 of good to bad Republican Senators should be 19 to 33. Also, if Lake, Hovde and Brown get in from AZ, WI and NV, they will be good Senators, too.
