Does anyone have a roll call vote for Rand's Amendments to the USA "Freedom" Act?

There was no vote - they were never proposed.


But while McConnell kept up his protest into the final moments leading up to the vote, his fellow Kentucky senator who antagonized his every move to reauthorize provisions of the Patriot Act noticeably avoided the spotlight on Tuesday.

Paul's weeks of staunch and unflinching opposition to reauthorizing the Patriot Act, and to the USA Freedom Act for not going far enough, ended Thursday {sic} with a simple "No" vote on that bill. He even relented in his plan to offer his own amendments to that piece of legislation and didn't make a prominent speech on the Senate floor on Tuesday.
