Just because a proposal gets denied doesn't mean that was the cause. You know this happens all the time in trying to get a bill passed. Representatives will vote no on a bill due to pork barrel spending or other billions of earmarks and then their opponents will use that no vote saying "my opposition doesn't support giving our troops flack jackets!".
