  • Senator John Fetterman noted that seven colleagues joined him in voting against the party line to end the shutdown.
  • The senators who voted for the deal are not up for reelection in 2026, indicating their decision was not swayed by electoral concerns.
  • In exchange for their support, Democratic lawmakers secured a promise for a mid-December vote on extending Affordable Care Act tax credits.
