'Don't ask, don't tell' repeal vote in doubt
Updated 11:15 a.m. ET
Efforts to repeal the military's "don't ask, don't tell" law are in doubt as a key moderate Republican senator says she plans to vote against ending debate on the annual defense policy bill unless Senate Democrats allow for more amendments to the measure and more time to debate.
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) said Tuesday morning that she wants to vote on the policy bill and to repeal the military's ban on gays serving openly in uniform, but will only do so if Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid allows for more than the three amendments he has said he plans to allow.
"For the life of me, I do not understand why the majority leader does not bring this bill to the floor and allow free and open debate and amendments from both sides of the aisle," Collins told reporters.
Collins said she would vote for cloture if Reid opens the bill up to other amendments, adding, "If there's an amendment that's offered to strike 'don't ask, don't tell' provisions from the bill, I'll vote against that amendment and I'll help lead the debate against the amendment."
Reid said last week he plans to allow for amendments that would grant legal status to younger immigrants who attend college or join the military, would end a senator's right to place anonymous holds on Executive Branch nominees, and an amendment to strike "don't ask" from the defense bill. Aides said Monday that no final decisions have been made.
Observers expect a close cloture vote, but the policy bill is almost certain to pass if Democrats can break a Republican-led filibuster. Reid (D-Nev.) has said that today's vote is merely the first step in a process that will end later this year when the House and Senate pass a compromise version of the policy bill after the November midterm elections. However, Democratic leaders are eager for a preliminary vote in advance of those elections, especially since Republicans could make substantial gains in both the Senate and the House.
