Senate to Block Emergency


With four GOP senators pledging to vote with the Democrats to block Trump’s fake emergency, the resolution looks set to pass 51 - 49. Rand Paul (R-KY) is the most recent to join the yes votes, saying, “I can't vote to give the president the power to spend money that hasn't been appropriated by Congress. We may want more money for border security, but Congress didn't authorize it. If we take away those checks and balances, it's a dangerous thing."

Action:

If your senator is a Republican, let them know that you want them to join their four GOP colleagues (Collins, Murkowski, Tillis and Paul) in voting for the resolution to block the national emergency. If your Senator is one of the four, thank them.

If both your senators are Democrats, thank one of the four GOP Senators who have pledged to vote in favor of the resolution.
