Why were there only 49 nay votes? aren't there 50 republicans
I'm waiting for the roll call to be posted to see who voted for it in the Pub ranks.
One was at a funeral
Kamala would have cast the tie breaking vote anyway
Sullivan had “family matters” in Alaska
Dan Sullivan of Alaksa was absent because he was in Alaska for a family funeral.
