  From Computer Underground Digest, Feb 1, 1996, Volume 8, Issue 10:

	  Voting against the measure in the Senate were Paul Simon,
	D-Ill.; John McCain, R-Ariz.; Russell Feingold, D-Wis.; Paul
	Wellstone, D-Minn., and Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.

  I've not yet found a list of the 15 House members who voted against
the bill.

  The following Web pages discuss this event, and the likely long term
implications.
