Senate Also Fails To Get 2/3 Vote On State-Related University Funding Bills

Senate Republicans followed the House Republicans in failing to get the required two-thirds vote on non-preferred appropriations bills for Pitt, Lincoln, Temple, Penn and Penn State (Senate Bills 1122, 1123, 1124, 1125, and 1126).  The votes were along party lines - 30 to 20.  34 votes are needed to pass non-preferred appropriations bills.
