With 52 Democrats currently sitting in the Senate and 46 voting it seems that six Democrats and the second independent voted in favor.
Their vote indeed was an act of courage and patriotism. It is well known that the party leadership punishes those who fail to toe the party line. They will need our support during the coming election cycle.
Those of us who are in the states those brave Senators represent should send a note, email, or call with thanks and encouragement. Remember that we need to also encourage them to stand firm on the entire Bill of Rights because eroding any of them opens back doors for de-facto destruction of the Second Amendment.
