Some excerpts:
In total, 37 Democrats, 46 Republicans, and three Independents voted in favor of the bill.
Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) led efforts to remove the anti-trans language from the NDAA by introducing Amendment 3332, which aimed to strike the discriminatory provisions. The amendment garnered support from 24 of her Senate colleagues. However, Democratic Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) at some point requested the amendment be withdrawn, opting not to bring it to a vote unless certain of its passage.

The major orgs kind of said Michigan "wasn't in their time line" from what I remember in activist calls with Dana Nessel (who is now our AG) They initially denied help with DeBoer va Snyder for the Same Sex marraige recognition. It was grassroots that forced the issue and funded it up to the point the DC crowd couldn't ignore it.
You might find this case study interesting reading.
