An effort by Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) on Thursday to tweak a new provision bolstering senators’ ability to sue the Justice Department for seizing their phone records without their knowledge during a Biden-era investigation was rejected.

The unsuccessful endeavor was in response to GOP tensions over the stipulation that was slipped into the recent government funding deal to end the shutdown, and came less than 24 hours after the House repealed the provision in a rare unanimous vote.
