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 Burr and Joni Ernst were surprises to me. Mitt only partly, now that the Mormon church has changed its stance on marriage equality.

@NoelSiksai @charlotteclymer

So wait was this the final bill and it passed or was this some procedural hurdle?

Is this headed to Biden now?

@Murphysical @charlotteclymer the bill is amended from the original House version. It has to go back to the House for concurrence and then to the President.
