Ossoff’s motion was similar to one he proposed during the Senate budget resolution in April, which aimed to create a point of order against any budget reconciliation bill that did not address insurance companies delaying or denying medical care, said the outlet.
Collins joined two other Republicans – Sen
Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) and Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo. ) – in supporting Ossoff’s amendment in April.
But Sullivan and Hawley both voted against the amendment.
If Ossoff’s motion had passed, it would have annihilated the budget reconciliation bill, which would provide funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol through 2029 if signed into law by President Trump.
