Sen. Ted Cruz, others announce bill to fund $25 billion border wall

[Rambunctious]

From what I hear the troops especially the Marines are repairing and reinforcing...miles of fencing....the drug cartels are not happy that the troops are there....

Tie a Yellow Ribbon

I hope Uncle Sam's Misguided Children don't desert us there, as they did in Iran when they surrendered to a teenage mob led by Ahmadinejad.

You hope they do...be honest...

All funding originates in the House, dope.

The House is still in Republican hands.

Then where’s the bill?

Yup and they can move this along and pass it before January.

I sure hope they do.

I'm glad to see the critters in DC are finally doing something the American tax payer wants done.

Where’s the bill?

 

[Claudette]

Hope its in front of them.

 

[eagle1462010]

They need 60 votes for funding. Not going to happen.

Govt shutdown or start going postal with ICE raids to force action.

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

Lets just do it with 51 Senate votes during reconciliation over the Christmas holiday - like Obamacare

Isn't that the expectation?

U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz with three other senators introduced a bill Wednesday that is aimed at fully funding a wall along the US-Mexico border... The WALL Act would fully fund the border wall by closing existing loopholes that provide illegal immigrants with federal benefits and tax credits, without affecting the benefits and tax credits used by Americans.

Ted Cruz played you idiots again......do yall ever learn?

House been in republican hands for awhile...where is the wall?

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

If your telling the truth

Uh, those are just facts i relayed. In a way, you're both right. But the first incarnation, indeed, originated in the House. While the ACA itself came from the Senate.

Funny how the ACA is more popular than the wall.....

HAlf the Republican Party supports open borders. One of them died a few months ago.

we have a general welfare clause not a general warfare clause. words matter.

To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization

Nope, according to the US Constitution, "all bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives".

This is not revenue raising bill, dope.

Lyin’ Ted trying to flush $25 billion down the toilet

Just think about money not flushed on illegals, and give him $50 billion for the wall.

our welfare clause is general not common; we have a commerce clause.

Only lousy capitalists lose money with recourse to those powers.

That you claim you did when you didn’t shows you’re a liar.

That you think you did when you didn’t shows you’re deranged.

But Fort Fun Indiana did post it... H.R. 3590

H.R. = House of Representatives

Now you know. Will you learn? No, of course not; you’re ineducable. But now you know.

It was an add on in the senate. Only a tramp like you wants to believe Obama care originated in the house.

”It was an add on in the senate.”

So? It still originated in the House as Constitutionally required, despite your moronic repeated claims that it started in the Senate. Which is why I kept challenging you to post the bill number; which is why you didn’t; which is you lied and said you did.

It didn't orginate in the house it came from the senate..


That's why it had to go to the supreme Court..



View attachment 233295

It went to the Supreme Court due to a challenge on the penalty for not carrying health insurance, which the Supreme Court agreed it is a tax and therefore Constitutional.

The origin of the bill had nothing to do with why it was taken to the Supreme Court. Had that actually have been the case and had it actually originated in the Senate, the Supreme Court would have reversed ObamaCare.

And yes, despite your rigid ignorance, the bill started in the House. If you had a brain, you’d understand that bill’s starting with ”H.R.” are so designed because they originate in the House.

Such as, H.R. 3590.

Had that bill actually originated in the Senate, as you idiotically insist, then it would have started with ”S.”

You're both partially right. Or wrong.

Bill HR3590 did originated in the House.

However, the penalty for not having insurance (for the purpose of raising revenue) was originated in the Senate. Since all revenue raising must originate in the House, the bill is technically unconstitutional.

You have any idea how rightarded you look right now?? The Supreme Court reviewed this and ruled the bill is constitutional.

It doesn’t matter what gets taken out or added. All that matters is that, All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives

The Senate took a House Bill and made it about ACA. It’s still a House Bill even though it doesn’t resemble the original bill.

nothing but fallacy; no wonder nobody takes the right wing seriously.

Closing loopholes to pay for the wall

Donald Trump was elected President largely due to his promise to "Build a Wall." While not every voter who voted for him was swayed by that particular "promise," there is no doubt that without his promise to "build a Wall" and to take our own existing immigration laws seriously, he would not have been elected.

So why do Democrats resist this mandate? Do they not know, as Barry Soetoro often reminded us, that ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES?

This is one of the clearest mandates in recent electoral history. Build the fucking Wall!

Trump was elected because he was the least worst candidate. Immigration was not a major issue in the election. Voters opposed the wall. If immigration was a major issue. Trump would have lost. The fact that Republicans lost the House shows voters are opposed to a wall.
