Finally a bill after 7 years. No more Continuing resolutions which were crap and did not justify their paycheck. This bill stinks but at least they are doing their obligated job for the first time. They are a shameful bunch but at least they accomplished 1 bill in 8 years of Obama’s Administration.

Every one of the clowns from Utah voted for this abortion except for Mike Lee.

And Rubio ended his Presidential Campaign chances today by NO SHOWING for the vote.

Actually brilliant. If he voted for it, it would have been bad. If he voted against him, it would have been used in the general against him. He didn’t vote.........that is easier to defend then both the other scenarios.

Rubio was in a no-win situation so he took the easy way out. Not exactly presidential.

Graham proved he is definitely not running for POTUS (as if there were any doubt).

There are a lot of R’s that need to find a new vocation (no doubt as a smarmy lobbyist) and allow Americans who really will stand up for their country to represent their constituency. This is disgraceful.

Many posters on this thread have a mistaken view of what the Republican Party stands for. Why is anyone surprised? THIS is the Republican party!

Or let’s just eliminate the redundancy and all it The Uniparty from now on.

Yep and everyone must accept that because others have used that excuse.

I still blame those who voted against it for not exercising stronger leadership with their ‘colleagues’. Failure on a grand scale!

why did a handful of D’s vote against, like Sanders? Not enough spend for them?

I note also that Cornyn voted for.

Honestly, I think Cornyn is so annoyed by Cruz that he is becoming more liberal, just b/c he hates Cruz.....

UPDATE: Here's the vote count. All they needed was a simple majority to pass it. They clearly got much more than that.

Looks like they were kinda making a statement.
