The amendment was symbolic, it was in response to the fact that a lot of people were pissed off about the ad, not politicians, just people, who expressed their concern. The politicians, being what they are thought they should do "something" so they did. They passed a non-binding amendment. but, in doing so the four Democrats in the Senate who are running for POTUS voted against it or didn’t vote at all.
