It was a vote to 'table' the amendment (which in the US means to set it aside. AFAIK this is the opposite of what it means to 'table' something in the UK Parliament). Votes against the motion (to table) came from Butler (D-CA), Heinrich (D-NM), Hirono (D-HI), Lujan (D-NM), Markey (D-MA), Merkley (D-OR), Paul (R-KY), Sanders (I-VT), Van Hollen (D-MD), Warren (D-MA) and Welch (D-VT). Everyone else either voted to kill it, or abstained.
