The Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2011, bill S.1456,
The joy of alphabetic order will appear when you click on the link. (this is probably not due to political bias as the Springfield Republican normally leans Democratic).

Interestingly, the Worcester Business Journal, probably not of Democratic leaning, does not list the lesser senator.

Here is Kerry's PR

And opencongress confirming that kerry is the sponsor

1. At least, the paper version this morning did not have this idiotic title.

2. That is good
It is ironic that in 2004, Kerry was given credit only for legislation that 1) listed him first and 2) passed in a roll call vote. Yet, suddenly, who the chief sponsor is no longer is no longer important. Here at least it is standard legislation that I assume any Senators would file for their state, but it is pretty weird when Brown gets long articles on anything he introduces and on things he signs on to co-sponsor.
