“What’s happening in Minnesota is appalling —and unacceptable in any American city. Democrats sought common sense reforms in the Department of Homeland Security spending bill, but because of Republicans’ refusal to stand up to President Trump, the DHS bill is woefully inadequate to rein in the abuses of ICE. I will vote no,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said in a statement Saturday. “Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included.”
The legislation needs 60 votes to secure passage in the chamber, where Republicans control 53 seats.
Shutdown ahoy
They’ve already voted to pass funding for military, which was huge. They’ve already voted to fund ICE.
They’re going to fund this. Democrats have failed.
Failed the people. They seem to be working towards some other end. One that leaves people dead and defenseless in the street.
Not sure if you’re not aware that there are Democrats in the Senate, or that they haven’t passed the funding bill
