All 49 Democrats voted in favor, as did Republican Senators Susan Collins of Maine; John Kennedy of Louisiana; and Lisa Murkowski, from Alaska.

For net neutrality to really reestablish itself, two more things have to happen. First, the camera must use the CRA to also override the policy. That is even more difficult, as instead of 30 signatures, net neutrality supporters must collect signatures from the absolute majority of chamber members, even if they have all Democrats in their favor, who have yet to do so. have, would still need the support of 22 Republicans. If that happened and everyone voted to reverse the policy, it would still have to be signed by President Trump, who is not a supporter.
