The United States Senate has overwhelmingly passed the HALT Fentanyl Act (S.331), which designates fentanyl-related substances as Schedule I drugs under the Controlled Substances Act. The legislation, sponsored by Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA), was backed by 84 senators.

However, 16 Democrats inexplicably voted against the measure. Their reason? Either blind partisanship or a preference for soft-on-crime policies—I’m leaning toward the latter.

Here is the full list of Democrats who opposed the final passage of the Halt Fentanyl Act:

• Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD)
• Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-DE)
• Cory Booker (D-NJ)
• Tammy Duckworth (D-IL)
• Mazie Hirono (D-HI)
• Ed Markey (D-MA)
• Jeff Merkley (D-OR)
• Chris Murphy (D-CT)
• Alex Padilla (D-CA)
• Bernie Sanders (D-VT)
• Adam Schiff (D-CA)
• Chris Van Hollen (D-MD)
• Raphael Warnock (D-GA)
• Elizabeth Warren (D-MA)
• Peter Welch (D-VT)
• Ron Wyden (D-OR)
