Summary
On June 1, 2023, the Senate voted on a proposed amendment that was ultimately rejected. Despite receiving more "yea" votes than "nay" votes (49–48), the amendment failed to reach the 60-vote threshold typically required for adoption under Senate rules.
The vote followed strict partisan lines, with 47 Republicans voting in favor and 46 Democrats voting against. Only one Democrat joined the Republican minority in support of the measure, while no Republicans voted against it. Because the amendment failed, the underlying legislative business proceeded without these proposed changes.
