Deporting the children of illegal immigrants would seem like
an unusually cruel act to many, but not to our own Republican representatives in Congress, who feel a need to
discipline those they feel are undeserving. This is the authoritarian nature of
a party hell bent on one party control of the country. And like in Wisconsin,
Republicans have little tolerance for those who don’t fit their party profile.
Send the kids packing: I still can’t really wrap my mind around
this very repugnant mean spirited act:
WSJ: ‘DREAM ACT’ DISPUTE: The House on June 6 voted, 224 for and 201 against, to block a year-old administration policy that achieves the objectives of the so-called Dream Act, a June 2012 executive order (preventing) (ICE) (from) deporting illegal aliens brought to America as children if they meet certain conditions. Among the terms are that they are now age 30 or younger, have been in the U.S. for at least five years, were under 16 when they arrived, have a clean record and have received a high school (or equivalent) degree or honorable military discharge.
A yes vote was to block an executive order in support of the Dream Act.Voting yes: Ryan, Sensenbrenner, Petri, Duffy, Ribble
Voting no: Pocan, Kind, Moore
