Updated 8:18 p.m. | The Senate next week will consider giving final approval to an unemployment benefits extension, thanks to a procedural vote Thursday.  

Given the wide national interest in this story,  we’re posting the full tally sheet and a breakdown of the bipartisan 65-34 vote to end a filibuster against bringing the legislation up for debate.  

The vote came 89 days after benefits expired late last year. Supporters of the bill said that as of today, 2.24 million Americans have been cut off.  

There are more hurdles to clear before the Senate can pass the bill, not to mention a wide disparity with House Republicans leadership that leaves it an open question whether the legislation would ever reach President Barack Obama’s desk.  

Every Democrat and the two independents who caucus with Democrats voted to advance the bill, while Republicans split. Here’s the breakdown on the GOP side:  

Republicans voting to advance the bill:  

Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire  

Dan Coats of Indiana  

Susan Collins of Maine  

Bob Corker of Tennessee  

Dean Heller of Nevada  

Ron Johnson of Wisconsin  

Mark S. Kirk of Illinois  

Lisa Murkowski of Alaska  

Rob Portman of Ohio  

Patrick J. Toomey of Pennsylvania  

(Updated: Coats, Corker, Johnson, Kirk, Portman and Toomey had voted to filibuster an extension in February , when an earlier measure came a single vote shy of ending a GOP filibuster.)
