, 19:15, February 21, 2021→Hickenlooper amendment
So from what I'm reading, Hickenlooper proposed an amendment to the 1962 Foreign Assistance Act that would have ended foreign aid to any country expropriating U.S. property. [https://fascinatingpolitics.com/2019/05/29/the-first-hickenlooper/] According to WP, it was defeated with a 35–45 tally [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourke_B._Hickenlooper#Hickenlooper_Amendment], though from what I found on GovTrack, it says that it had been a 40–45 vote...
