| Recent Senate Votes |
Campaign Finance Constitutional Amendment - Cloture - Vote Rejected (54-42, 4 Not Voting)
The Senate failed to invoke cloture on a joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment that would allow federal and state lawmakers to set limits on money raised and spent by candidates and others to influence elections. The amendment would give Congress and the states the power to distinguish between people and "corporations or other artificial entities created by law" and to block such entities from spending money on elections.
Sen. Brian Schatz voted YES
Sen. Mazie Hirono voted YES

Health Plan Extensions - Passage - Vote Passed (247-167, 17 Not Voting)
The House voted to pass a bill that would allow health insurers to continue providing any group health plans offered in 2013 to existing or new enrollees, even if the plans do not comply with the coverage requirements under the 2010 health care law. The measure also would consider those plans as grandfathered and thus not subject to penalties for not complying with the law's individual mandate.
Rep. Colleen Hanabusa voted YES
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard voted NO
