10 Senate Dems join MAGAs to advance Laken Riley Act

Senators voted 61-35 to end debate on the bill, with 10 Democrats voting with every Republican; 60 votes were needed.

[Here's the Dem Hall of Fame:]

Democrats who voted “aye” were Sens. Ruben Gallego (Ariz.), Mark Kelly (Ariz.), Jon Ossoff (Ga.), Gary Peters (Mich.), Jacky Rosen (Nev.), Catherine Cortez Masto (Nev.), Jeanne Shaheen (N.H.), Maggie Hassan (N.H.), Mark Warner (Va.) and Elissa Slotkin (Mich.). Gallego and Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.), who did not vote, were co-sponsors of the legislation.

The legislation would mandate federal detention of immigrants without legal status who are accused of theft, burglary and assaulting a law enforcement officer, among other things.

48 Democrats also voted to pass the bill in the House earlier this month.

A number of Democrats voted for the bill only months after the party was decimated at the ballot box, with border security and immigration playing a key role as Republicans repeatedly panned Democrats for being too soft on those issues.


They're saying on Fox [that was just for you, Indy] that 10 Senate Dems up for reelection in 026 are from states Trump carried in his thumping of that "dithering and diminished" "feckless dementia-ridden" Doddering Old Fool in the 024 election.

Expect a lot of "bipartisan" votes in the near future, bahaha!

    Not sure why you called me out there. I'm all for deporting people who do not have legal status for committing (serious) crimes. It would be a good deterrent for other immigrants thinking of breaking the law... even though that number is tiny compared to the number of Fox watchers committing crimes.

    Indy,

    I wanted to affirm your suspicion that I received that data from Fox... because it seems to matter to you. I think, in this case, it wasn't a lie.
