"Democrats want votes on four provisions at once — fast track (which would ensure a Congressional up-or-down vote on a final deal), Trade Adjustment Assistance (which helps workers displaced by trade), a provision cracking down on currency manipulation by other countries, and a measure that would stiffen enforcement of the terms of the trade deal. McConnell only allowed a vote on the first two of these. A sizable bloc of Dems who voted No today could well vote Yes if McConnell relents and allows a vote on all four, or guarantees in some other way that all four will pass." WaPo

Looks like it's McConnell that's to blame for this vote. ;)
