Biden characterized skeptics of reauthorization as “this sort of Neanderthal crowd,” according to a pool report.

The Republican-led House renewed the act in February after it was in legislative limbo for a year following its expiration in September 2011. It passed with a 286 to 138 vote, with a majority of GOPers voting against it. All Democrats and 87 Republican lawmakers voted in favor for it.'
