Washington — Senate Democrats on Monday blocked a measure that sought to ban transgender girls and women from competing on school sports teams that match their gender identity.
The 51-45 vote fell short of the 60 required to advance the bill. Republicans, who control 53 seats in the upper chamber, needed at least seven Democrats to join them if all members were present and voting

Thank you democrats, keep dying on that hill.
Even if those 2 to 4 seats weren’t stolen, GOP would have 57 votes at best.
Dumbocrats are warped scum.
He did. However passing it into law makes it permanent. A Democrat president can simply cancel the executive order
Will I get a ticket for doing my make-up in the visor mirror or not? That’s all i care about.
Do any of those Democrats have daughters?
If the Democrats want to go to the wall on that issue, maybe I’ll donate a few bucks to help them.
Sounds like a losing position to me.
Hey Skyhook! Do you think “americans” are still on your side? You better go ring the fire alarms. You skanks are in heap big trouble now. Selling out the little girls and setting them up to be raped in your locker rooms. Good job boy! You’re as dumb as you look.
This is exactly what we want—Democrat votes on this issue and variations—over and over and over again.
Then when they try to claim they have moderated their views we can cram it down their throats.
This is a mainstream issue for Dims.
They should reform the filibuster to make it the old-fashioned version, where objectors would have to stand in the well of the Senate and make continuous speeches and talk continuously, subject to a 2/3 vote to override.
Let Democrat parents explain to their daughters that Senators are reading technical manuals and phone books out loud in order to make sure boys can be on their sports teams.
Got the Dem Senators on record against something 80% of Americans support.
Can’t wait to hear Carville’s reaction, also Maher. They think these dems are nuts for supporting this crap.
And as soon as a 'trans athlete' guy accidentally kills or permaentally maims a girl, this ALL gets put back in the box... Hard!
Democrats are truly insane. Aren't they smart enough to know that's coming? Do they just have zero common sense any more?
Now you know why they’re called DemonRats.
No farding, okay?
Is this one of those “press one to filibuster” situations? Leader Thune, I don’t want you to surrender in the face of 41 Democrats voting against it. Make them hold the floor for days at a time. I want to see Bernie Sanders keel over at hour 53.
Women are chattel to dems. They don’t like them and they don’t respect them. As clearly evidenced by how they treat them.
I wonder how many get some sort of sicko pleasure out of watching boys beat up girls.
