Notes and caveats: The Senate used a mix of recorded roll-call tallies and voice votes. Where the transcript provided a numeric tally it is reported above. For many consent-calendar items the transcript records passage with unanimous or near-unanimous counts; for brevity this roundup highlights items with substantive debate or recorded tallies. Consult the official enrolled bills and the Secretary of the Senate for final certified vote records.
