As far as parties go, looks like the Republicans voted 14-3 in favor; Democrats 7-5 against. Not a solid "against" showing for either party, but seems the Democrats were a bit better. Oddly, none of the Tea Party Caucus members of the committee were in the 3 Republicans who voted no (what happened to limited government and less regulation?).
