tl;dr: It went down party lines with the exceptions of Rand Paul & John Fetterman. The two independents, Angus King & Bernard Sanders, caucus with the Dems and voted yea.

It was a symbolic vote only. Would have needed 2/3 of all congress to pass after any veto.

The fact this one scene is the only organized resistance by any group of politicians says a lot about the state of the union
