Voting analysis
Maggie Hassan's departures from the Democratic caucus are concentrated on a single appropriations bill, which she supported at every procedural stage while most of her colleagues opposed it.
Backing a funding measure the caucus resisted
She voted for cloture on the bill, for a Republican senator's amendment to it, for cloture on that amendment, and for final passage. She also supported a separate bill on the same terms. This is the profile of a member willing to supply the votes that let a spending measure move, rather than one seeking to reshape it.
