This vote advanced a bill to raise the debt limit for an unlimited amount until March 15, 2015. No spending cuts or budget reforms accompany this bill. Senators voting to advance this debt ceiling increase have no idea the amount of debt they are approving because the increase is affixed to a date rather than a number. In essence, this increase is a blank check. The vote passed on February 12, 2014 in a roll call vote of 67-31.
