    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.
