McGovern only MA pol to vote against FAA bill. Congrats to him.

Senate bill passed by UC, so while Warren and Cowan did not vote YES, they did not oppose (whether because they did not care enough or because they were in favor of the bill)

Lynch and Markey were campaigning and therefore did not vote.
