Both Florida Senators—Nelson (D) and Rubio (”R”) voted NO on the amendment, in support of a sellout to the United Nations. Sick sick sick.

Ayotte (R-NH), Yea - Good.
Shaheen (D-NH), Nay - No surprise there, she has been on the wrong side on every issue.
What is wrong with people who are willing to hand over our decision making to a foreign body that we can't even vote for.

Incorrect. At least one Republican (Florida’s Rubio) voted “NO” which was a vote AGAINST the Amendment and IN FAVOR of adding the U.S. as a signatory to the U.N. treaty. All you have to do to understand the vote is to see how Chuck U. Shumer voted. He voted NO.

Yeah, maybe Rubio didn’t understand which way to vote and got confused? Ya think? (Yikes—freshmen!)

That’s OK it was formatted a little strange! I had to read it twice after seeing your post to notice what was what!

The lists are a little confusing. The second list is “Yeas,” as in votes to BLOCK the US entering into the treaty.

A Nay vote means not to uphold the 2nd amendment.

The list is confusing. The Senators’ votes are listed AFTER their names.

BTW all three of those voted Yea - to block the US from joining the treaty.

Yea is to block entering, Nay is to permit entering. IOW Yeas are good.

This entire article is confusing......at least for me. Rubio is listed one place as voting nay and another as yea. Hopefully someone will go to the congressional record an find out what transpired.

4Runner, I’d recommend you go to the linked article and read it there (the linked article also has a link to the congressional record of the vote). The extract got things all mixed up. Some good conservatives are consequently being accused (by many here in this thread) with voting the opposite of the way they actually voted.

Some folks are here (INADVERTENTLY I’m sure—caused by their misreading or not reading of the linked article) spreading FUD.

You’re reading it wrong. He voted Aye, as in against the treaty.
