Only 14 out of 50 Republican senators voted for a debt limit deal struck by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on Thursday afternoon, amid grumbling from the Senate GOP conference over how McConnell handled the fight he started over the summer.
McConnell, R-Ky., voted for the deal along with fellow members of the Senate Republican leadership team, including Sens. John Thune, R-S.D., John Barasso, R-Wyo., Roy Blunt, R-Mo., and Joni Ernst, R-Iowa.
