Dorgan-Grassley Fails: 56 to 43
Share
The Dorgan-Grassley Amendment to the Farm Bill just missed having enough votes to pass the Senate. It needed 60 votes and fell short by just 4 votes. So close.

Man, I was checking senate.gov every day for that amendment, and when I saw it didn’t pass I was so disappointed. Is there any way of getting similar results sooner than 5 years? Poverty can’t wait that long!!!
