  "It’s unclear if the Senate will take up the legislation, as Democratic leaders remained noncommittal on Tuesday. Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said he would personally support putting it on the floor, but questioned whether there’s enough time on the calendar with the Senate set to go on an extended recess in two weeks and two huge party priorities to finish before then. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer would not say Tuesday if there would be a floor vote but said, “we’re going to look at everything we can do.” https://www.politico.com/amp/news/2022/07/19/dozens-of-republicans-back-codifying-marriage-equality-00046682 https://www.politico.com/amp/news/2022/07/19/dozens-of-repub... An update from last night: in addition to Susan Collins as a primary sponsor to the Senate bill, Sen. Rob Portman from Ohio is also now signing on as a cosponsor. https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/politics/ohio-politics/u-s-house-votes-to-protect-marriage-equality-ohio-gop-split https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/politics/ohio-politics/u...
