Vance Casts Tie-Breaking Votes To Advance $9.4B Rescissions Package In Senate

Collins went on to claim that CPB money in Maine supports the state’s emergency alert system and permits high school basketball games to be shown on television.

“We should know exactly what programs are affected and the consequences of recissions,” Collins stressed.

The Senate now has at least 10 hours to discuss the proposal before voting on changes and holding a final vote.

The House, which approved the plan 214-212 in June, would next have to review the Senate’s revisions to the law.
