Full List of Democrats Who Voted Against Deporting Migrants Who Attack Cops
By: Kaitlin Lewis AND Martha McHardy (Newsweek)
A majority of House Democrats voted against a bill put forth by GOP lawmakers that would require federal law enforcement to detain migrants who have entered the U.S. illegally and face charges for assaulting police officers.
The bill, which is titled the "Detain and Deport Illegal Aliens Who Assault Cops Act," was first introduced by New Jersey Representative Jeff Van Drew and backed by several other Republicans. It is among a series of legislation that the House GOP has vowed to bring to the chamber's floor in the coming days in honor of National Police Week. Republicans said in a release on Wednesday that the bills "highlight our continued support for America's law enforcement offices."
The measure passed the House in a 265-148 vote Wednesday; 211 Republicans were joined by 54 Democrats to send the bill to the Senate. All no votes were cast by Democrats. Six Republicans and 11 Democrats did not vote on the bill.

Candyasses every one............................instead of coddling, ANY one of them who commits a felony just needs to go to jail and when they have completed their sentence, instant deportation.
What the fuck is wrong with these lawmakers? by definition these illegal thugs are flight risks.
They are democrats.
They hate Americans.
And they want to replace them.
They also really love their criminals.
Criminals count when deciding voting districts in some places like CA, PA, and MI. Some even are being allowed the right to vote in certain districts in New York.
Democrats care about winning elections; and getting and holding power.
They don't give a shit if US citizens have to suffer in the process.
Example would be Fat Alvin's plea deal with the illegals that attacked police.
Treasonist behavior to say the least.
I would actually be interested in knowing the reasoning for voting against this.
So, this could be seen as a declaration that their HOMES are "sanctuary homes" right?
Wait until they declare anyone with extra rooms in their home a sanctuary homeowner and tries to place migrants in their houses.
These are all Federal "representatives". With the amount of time they spend in D.C., their homes in their districts are vacant. Time to put them to good use.
They let them in and let them run wild
You mean like feral cats?
Yes!
Bingo!
