More than a half-dozen Republican senators bucked their party Thursday to support a Democratic effort to prohibit the construction of President Donald Trump’s yet-to-be-built East Wing ballroom without congressional approval.

Those seven members were Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Jerry Moran (R-KS), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), Thom Tillis (R-NC), Jon Husted (R-OH), and Bill Cassidy (R-LA). Still, the endeavor needed 60 votes and was defeated.
