Plus the House Representatives. Plus the Senate has 60 votes to change it, far more than the 51 they need. So it's a shame the minority GOP is preventing a vote on this by filibuster, holding the rest of the country hostage to their minority opinion.

The GOP can continue obstructing, and let the courts rule it unconstitutional, order immediate repeal (not good implementation for the military), or the President can simply executive order it into oblivion (which leaves it able to be re-implemented in the future).

So the GOP will get another chance to get their heads out of their butts, let the military control how it is repealed and implemented, and vote once more on this before this congress ends at Christmas.
