What's your source? Mine says he voted no. But check out some of the Congressmen that voted yes. That video just convinced me NOT to make a strategic vote this November (i.e. voting Republican just to oust a Democrat).

Which is a good thing if government is going to have a drug program, it makes a bad policy more palatable and less of a burden on taxpayers while not rewarding the pharmaceutical industry nearly as much.
