WASHINGTON — A bill to keep federal agencies funded through November 21 failed in the U.S.  Senate. The bill needed 60 votes to pass but received only 55. It was the first Senate vote to end the government shutdown that began at midnight Tuesday. If passed, the bill would have reopened government but with Trump’s elimination of healthcare funding. Democrats have been insistent against the Trump cuts. How Minnesota and Wisconsin senators voted:

To claw back Trump healthcare cuts

Tammy Baldwin, D-Wisconsin

Amy Klobuchar, D-Minesota

Tina Smith, D-Minnesota

To allow cuts

Ron Johnson, R-Wisconsin
