Here Are The Democrats Who Voted Against Allowing In Syrian Refugees
[su_center_b]
We don’t need a second Republican Party. Why these Democrats bought into the fear-mongering is beyond me.
Republicans are doing exactly what ISIS wants Western leaders to do. And although President Obama, our three Democratic presidential candidates, and senators like Elizabeth Warren have eloquently spoken about why we should continue to accept refugees (at a higher level than our embarrassingly low number), many Democrats are simply craven. And we saw that today.
The Republican bill passed easily, 289 to 137. 47 Democrats joined the GOP in voting for it, and 2 Republicans voted against it.
