House kills conservative immigration bill, delays Paul Ryan compromise amid struggle to find GOP vot
« on: June 21, 2018, 07:04:55 pm »
The House on Thursday defeated a Republican immigration reform bill in the first of two doomed votes that some had hoped would pave the way to stronger border security and a pathway to citizenship for "Dreamers" caught in legal limbo.

Lawmakers voted against a measure authored by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., and Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul, R-Texas, that is considered the more conservative of the two options considered on Thursday.

The House rejected that bill 193-231, in a vote that saw 41 Republicans go against their GOP colleagues. Every Democrat voted against it.

They must not have heard President Trump say how important it was.

This is why voting for Republicans and expecting them to do Constitutional and Conservative things is stupid.

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775
