Which senators voted for and against the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act in the Senate roll call?

1. What the sources say about the Senate outcome

Multiple provided sources state the combined Freedom to Vote/John R. Lewis package passed the House but was blocked in the Senate because it lacked the 60 votes required to overcome the filibuster; summaries say Senate Republicans prevented cloture and that Democrats lacked the votes to proceed ^{[1] [3] [2]}. The Brennan Center specifically notes Senate Republicans voted to block debate on November 3, 2021, and broader summaries repeat that Democrats supported the bills while Republicans opposed the cloture efforts ^{[2] [1]}.

2. Partisan patterns reported

Summaries in these sources characterize the roll calls as sharply partisan: coverage and encyclopedic summaries state “all Democrats voted in favor” and “all Republicans voted against” the John R. Lewis bill in the Senate instances cited, and that the bill failed to reach 60 votes to invoke cloture ^[1]. Civil‑rights and advocacy groups likewise framed the procedural failure as Republican obstruction of voting‑rights legislation ^{[4] [3]}.

3. What the sources do not provide

The assembled materials do not include a complete, line‑by‑line Senate roll‑call list naming each senator’s vote on the cloture motion for the combined Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act. They provide summaries of partisan outcomes and procedural context but no verbatim roll‑call table in the snippets supplied (available sources do not mention a full roll‑call list) ^{[1] [3] [2]}.

4. Why a roll‑call list matters — and where these sources point you next

A named roll call would show exceptions, crossovers, or abstentions; the summaries here present a uniform partisan picture but do not let readers verify individual senator positions from the supplied links ^{[1] [2]}. For precise vote records, Congress.gov or the Senate’s official roll‑call pages typically publish the cloture and final vote tallies; the current search results include the bill text (H.R.14) and many advocacy and press releases but not the Senate’s roll‑call transcript ^[5].

5. Competing framings in the sources

Advocacy groups and the bill’s sponsors frame the failure as an obstacle to restoring Voting Rights Act protections and attribute it to the filibuster and Republican opposition ^{[4] [6]}. Encyclopedic summaries (Wikipedia) and legal‑policy analysts report the same procedural fact — the measure could not get cloture and therefore did not advance — while the Brennan Center and others emphasize paths forward such as finding procedural routes or changing the filibuster ^{[1] [2]}.

6. How to confirm individual senator votes

To produce the named roll call the sources here do not include, consult the Senate’s official roll‑call records or the Congressional Record for the date of the cloture vote (the November 2021 cloture attempt is referenced in these sources) — those records list each senator’s yea, nay, or present vote (available sources do not mention the Senate roll‑call page itself) ^{[1] [2] [5]}.

7. Bottom line for readers

The documents you provided establish the central facts: the House passed related legislation; the combined Freedom to Vote/John R. Lewis effort failed in the Senate because it could not reach 60 votes to overcome filibuster obstruction; reporting frames the outcome as partisan with Republicans blocking debate ^{[1] [3] [2]}. For a senator‑by‑senator roll‑call list, the current set of sources is incomplete — consult the Senate’s roll‑call records or Congress.gov for the exact vote log (available sources do not include that roll‑call list) ^[5].
