Bipartisan Support for the Bill

The 62-38 vote highlighted bipartisan support, though the process faced significant opposition. The legislation involves trimming non-defense spending by $13 billion and increasing defense support by $6 billion. Major statements were made by Senate leaders, noting both support and opposition.
