I agree that is the most likely, same as the Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska). Although she didn’t even have the decency (?) to say which part she didn’t like, she just said it wasn’t ready, but still voted for it.
To quote her directly,
“And I’ve been here quite a while, and you all know I’ve got a few battle scars underneath me. But I think I held my head up and made sure that the people of Alaska are not forgotten in this.”
So in true Republican fashion she gets hers, so fuck everyone else. Of course the small victories in no way offset the amount of damage done by the bill at large. But now she can campaign that she “Fought for Alaska” while screwing over everyone, including Alaskans.
She voted for the bill in the House, then came out against it stating that she didn’t know the bill limited AI regulation.
The bill then went to the Senate where the provisions limiting AI regulation were removed, and then passed.
The House will once again vote on the bill, which now does not restrict AI regulation.
She hasn’t made any statement but presumably she now supports the bill, given her only complaint about it has been removed.
i have a feeling she was going to support the bill anyways, she wanted some way to not take the blame for supporting the bbb as a whole.

she has forgotten about alaska, the parlimentarian removed her carveouts.
Really? Do you have a source? I looked around online but didn’t find anything.
Why vote for a bill that you haven’t read? If I was a rep and didn’t have time to reasonably understand a bill, I’d knee-jerk vote no.
