Twelve GOP senators voted today in favor of marriage equality, overcoming the 60-vote filibuster threshold:

Roy Blunt (MO)
Richard Burr (NC)
Shelley Moore Capito (WV)
Susan Collins (ME)
Cynthia Lummis (WY)
Rob Portman (OH)
Dan Sullivan (AK)
Mitt Romney (UT)
Thom Tillis (NC)
Lisa Murkowski (AK)
Join Ernst (IA)
Todd Young (IN)

I wrote about why I don't like this bill, and why it absolutely needed to pass.

I'm glad it did. Read my piece on it here:

I Hate the Senate Bill and We Need It to Pass

Listen now (13 min) | It sucks. And it's our only real option. We have to pass it.

@charlotteclymer This is well written, and it highlights an important part of politics that I myself used to not understand. Sometimes we can only get *some* of what we want. Rather than folding our arms and walking away with *nothing*, the plan then becomes going back later to get more. Doing it all again. Continuously applying pressure.
