The amendment was rejected by a vote of 76 to 24. Only Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Paul himself, along with 22 Democratic senators, supported pushing the amendment forward. The clause severely restricted marijuana products with intoxicating effects that had been legalized since the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill. The Senates rejection of the amendment paves the way for Congress to finally pass an appropriations package, bringing Congress one step closer to ending the government shutdown. In an interview, Paul stated that he proposed the amendment not to "delay the process," but to protect the industrial hemp industry that has flourished in Kentucky since 2018.On Tuesday, November 11, the Hang Seng Index opened 99.03 points higher, or 0.37%, at 26,748.09; the Hang Seng Tech Index opened 46.46 points higher, or 0.79%, at 5,962.02; the H-share Index opened 41.47 points higher, or 0.44%, at 9,484.71; and the Red Chip Index opened 6.91 points higher, or 0.16%, at 4,274.62.Hong Kong stocks opened higher, with the Hang Seng Index up 0.37% and the Hang Seng Tech Index up 0.79%.
