Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer came up just short in his effort to get legislation through the chamber blocking the Treasury Department from easing sanctions on a trio of Russian companies.

Less than 24 hours after securing 57 votes to support a motion to proceed to the joint resolution disapproving of Treasury’s move to lift sanctions on three Russian firms that have been controlled by sanctioned oligarch Oleg Deripaska, the same number of senators voted to limit debate — but that was three short of the 60 needed to cut off debate and get the measure to a final passage vote.

Schumer had been bullish Tuesday night about his chances of getting 60 votes.

“I know that there were a whole bunch of Republicans who wanted to vote yes and [Majority Leader Mitch McConnell] and some of his leadership put a lot of pressure on them to vote no,” Schumer said on MSNBC. “But now that I think they have seen that 11 others have voted this way, yes, I think we have a real shot.”

The 11 Republicans who crossed over to support the motion to proceed came from multiple wings of the Senate GOP majority, from foreign policy hawks such as Arkansas’ Tom Cotton to members of the moderate wing such as Maine’s Susan Collins.
