Senators Scott and Daines were joined by Senators Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.), John Cornyn (R-Texas), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), Bill Cassidy (R-La.), John Thune (R-S.D.), Mike Rounds (R-S.D.), Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.), Todd Young (R-Ind.), and James Lankford (R-Okla).
