U.S. Senator Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., was one of 19 senators to vote against cloture, the procedural vote that allowed the Senate majority to remove the defunding provisions. Enzi also voted against allowing the funding bill to advance because its total went above previously established budget caps.\u00a0 \u00a0 \r\n\u201cAbout four years ago, those who ran Congress passed a government-run takeover of healthcare despite pleas from the American people to slow down and stop taking the country down this road. Now we\u2019re four days from Obamacare fully coming online and the American people still don\u2019t like what this bad law has to offer. Less choice, billions in new taxes, people losing their health care plans they were told they could keep. The people of Wyoming want this law gone and I\u2019m with them. I\u2019ve always been with them. We have some new blood in the Senate that is advancing our message and I\u2019m thankful for that. But our fight isn\u2019t a new one, it\u2019s the same one we\u2019ve been fighting for four years. Those who passed this law and signed it made a huge mistake that we\u2019re all paying for. This is a fight to repeal it so we can do real healthcare reform without the government running things. It\u2019s a fight to defund this monstrosity that is killing full-time employment in this country. It\u2019s a fight to dismantle all that we can while we work for a long-term solution. I will continue this fight to make Washington listen.\u201d\r\nThe Senate voted to end debate on the bill by invoking cloture 79-19.\u00a0 It voted to advance the bill despite the bill going over spending limits 68-30. Then the Senate passed a version of the resolution that included funding for Obamacare 54-44.\u00a0The continuing resolution now goes back to the House for consideration with votes possible this weekend and early next week.", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.enzi.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/news-releases?ContentRecord_id=e18e7d7f-73dc-49c1-90b4-d0ee288f92e1"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0956032201647758, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
