The United States Senate conducted a crucial vote on Thursday to extend the debt limit of the country. The vote, which was an attempt to break a filibuster in the legislative chamber, gathered the support of 11 members of the Republican party.

The legislation thinly crossed the legislative hurdle, which required support from at least 10 Republicans. The vote ended 61-38.

Here are the GOP lawmakers who voted to extend the debt ceiling of the United States on Thursday:

– Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell (Kentucky)

– Senate Minority Whip John Thune ( South Dakota)

-Senator John Cornyn (Texas)

– Senator John Barrasso (Wyoming)

– Senator Roy Blunt (Missouri)

-Senator Susan Collins (Maine)

–Senator Lisa Murkowski (Alaska)

-Senator Richard Shelby (Alabama)

-Senator Shelley Moore Capito (West Virginia)

-Senator Rob Portman (Ohio)

-Senator Mike Rounds (South Dakota)

All members of the Democratic party present in the United States Senate on Thursday voted for the extension of the debt limit and did not cross any party lines.

After the upper legislative house broke the filibuster, a vote was carried out in the Senate through a roll call to give clear passage to the bill. However, the second round of voting only required a simple majority, which is 50 votes.

The vote of 50-48 in support of the bill to raise the government’s debt ceiling by nearly a half-trillion dollars brought instant relief in Washington and far beyond. However, it provides only a reprieve.

Assuming the House goes along, Republican and Democratic lawmakers will still have to tackle their deep differences on the issue once more before the year ends, according to reports from Associated Press.

The bill will travel to the United States House of Representatives, where the Democratic lawmakers have a stronghold, in an attempt to cross its final legislative hurdle and then land up on President Joe Biden’s desk for the executive approval.
