The DEMOCRATS pushed for that. The vast majority of Republicans OPPOSED it.

And yet it passed two houses of congress (both of which have a GOP majority) and was then signed into law by a republican president.

Go figure.

And for all the talk about how the Dems can block judges with 41 votes in the Senate, it never occurred to the GOP to use the same tactic to block these spending increases. Go figure.
