Senate again rejects Democrats’ funding bill
For the fifth time, the Senate rejected the Democrats’ government funding bill that includes health care provisions by a vote of 45-50. It would have needed 60 votes to advance. No Republicans voted for it.
The Senate is now voting on a procedural vote on the clean extension of government funding through Nov. 21. This bill would also need 60 votes to advance. If Democratic Sens. Catherine Cortez Masto and John Fetterman and independent Angus King again vote yes, and Republican Sen. Rand Paul again votes no, five more Democrats would need to flip their vote in order to keep the bill moving.
