It's time for Congress to do its job--and NOT on the backs of the American people & federal workers. For weeks, we have called for Congress to pass a bipartisan deal that would pay FEMA, TSA, and Coast Guard, but not a penny more to ICE. House Republicans are fighting among themselves.

... The bill in question, the Dignity Act, is not new and has little chance of getting a vote in this Congress. But pent-up frustration from conservatives over President Trump delivering on mass deportations and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown turned into a pile-on over the bill.

It's also highlighting the division between moderate Republicans aiming to combat a decline in support for the GOP among the Hispanic and Latino voters who helped propel the party to victory in 2024, and hard-liners who argue the bill would be a betrayal of promises made to voters.

At the center of the uproar is Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.), the bill's designer who has for years advocated for immigration reform, a position that is often lonely in today's Republican Party. Her Dignity Act is largely in the vein of compromise immigration policy bills that have come before it. ...

Um, two of your congressman had to resign for rape, one who's rape victim set herself on fire. So you may want to lighten up on the pedo comments. Unless you're referring to Biden who's own daughter said he took "inappropriate" showers with her.

Um, your reference to the congressman whose aide committed suicide by self-immolation regards Texas District 23 Representative Tony Gonzales, a Republican. You are correct in that he has resigned.

*** Chuck Grassley: "Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Mike Lee (R-UT) Would Be My SCOTUS Nominees" ***

"Good-for-nothing Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) floated two of his Republican colleagues as possible nominees for the Supreme Court as speculation swirls over whether Justice Samuel Alito may soon step down.

Grassley, whose committee is responsible for ushering judicial nominees to Senate confirmation, bleated that he would recommend Sens. Mike Lee (R-UT) and Ted Cruz (R-TX) for the high court post if Alito announces his retirement."
