Editor: Could the Democrats make a bigger mess of things in their own party? Several Senators have told Schumer to pound sand when it comes to the resistance and a Kavanaugh confirmation. And now, this opposition to ICE is going down in flames. Me? I think they are funny. They don't even have an effective leader.
Daily Caller: Three Democratic congressmen declared on Thursday that
they will vote “no” on their own legislation if House Speaker Paul Ryan
puts their bill on the floor.
Reps. Mark Pocan of Wisconsin, Pramila Jayapal of Washington and
Adriano Espaillat of New York introduced the Establishing a Humane
Immigration Enforcement Act earlier Thursday, which would abolish ICE
within one year of enactment, and also assemble a commission . . . .
tasked with
setting up a new immigration enforcement agency.
Hours later, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy announced he
planned to bring the proposed “Abolish ICE” bill to the floor, reported
The Hill.
The three congressmen promptly released a joint statement accusing
Ryan of not taking their bill seriously, and as an act of protest, they
will vote down their own legislation and instead use the opportunity to
discuss Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, President Donald Trump’s
zero-tolerance immigration policy and ICE.
