参议院再次以54比45的投票结果，第七次未能推进共和党清洁短期措施，为政府提供资金。它没有获得前进所需的60票。

　　肯塔基州共和党参议员兰德·保罗投票反对该法案，再次与他的政党决裂。

　　内华达州的民主党人凯瑟琳·科尔特斯·梅斯托和宾夕法尼亚州的约翰·费特曼，以及缅因州的独立议员安格斯·金投了赞成票。没有其他民主党人改变他们的投票。

　　得克萨斯州共和党参议员特德·克鲁兹错过了投票。

　　早些时候，参议院以47比50的投票结果未能推进民主党领导的包括医疗保健条款的拨款法案。这也是该努力第七次失败。没有一个共和党人支持它。

　　目前，政府拨款僵局仍在继续，没有明确的结束迹象，众议院仍处于休会期。

　　参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩(John Thune)告诉记者，参议院将于周五开会，届时我们可以看到对两项拨款法案的又一次投票。
 

Senate again fails to advance clean funding bill, shutdown drags on with no end in sight

　　The Senate failed once again to advance the GOP clean short-term measure to fund the government for the seventh time by a vote of 54-45. It did not receive the necessary 60 votes to move forward.

　　Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul voted against the bill, breaking with his party yet again.

　　Democrats Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada and John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, as well as Independent Angus King of Maine, voted in favor. No other Democrats switched their vote.

　　Texas GOP Sen. Ted Cruz missed the vote.

　　Earlier, the Senate failed to advance a Democratic-led funding bill that includes health care provisions by a vote of 47-50. This was the seventh time that effort has failed, too. Not one Republican supported it.

　　For now, the government funding stalemate continues with no clear end in sight, and the House remains out of session.

　　Senate Majority Leader John Thune told reporters the Senate will be in session on Friday, where we could see another vote on the dueling funding bills.
