JD Vance arrives on capitol hill to break possible tie vote in Senate. Tillis, Rand Paul and Ron Johnson all vote No. Polls show that this bill is political suicide for the Republican Party

by

Vice President JD Vance has arrived at the Capitol to potentially cast a tiebreaking vote to advance the GOP megabill. He was accompanied by Sen. Eric Schmitt of Missouri, who golfed earlier today with President Donald Trump. Four other GOP senators — Mike Lee of Utah, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Rick Scott of Florida — have yet to vote. All need to vote “yes” to advance the legislation.

GOP Sens. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and Sens. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin have voted against proceeding with debate. Republican leaders can bear no more than three defections while letting Vance break a 50-50 tie.
