    72-11?!?

    Geeze I figured it wouldn’t pass but didn’t realize support was quite that weak.

    Here’s the list who actually voted in favor. All democrats except for, Rand Paul of all people? Since when does he give a crap about human rights? Guess he’s just in favor of any bill that might reduce foreign aid.

    Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky
    
    Democratic Sen. Martin Heinrich of New Mexico
    
    Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon
    
    Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont
    
    Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland
    
    Democratic Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts
    
    Democratic Sen. Laphonza Butler of California
    
    Democratic Sen. Ben Ray Lujan of New Mexico
    
    Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii
    
    Democratic Sen. Peter Welch of Vermont
    
    Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts
    

    If you’re senator isn’t on here, would be a good time to write them.
