Senate to send resolution condemning KKK, neo-Nazis to Trump's desk

Not impressed. The KKK and neo-Nazis are fringe groups that are best sidelined by laughing at them. They are not murdering people. They are identifying with murderers just like a lot of popular rock bands do for publicity. Don’t give it to them.

Instead, send a resolution condemning Planned Parenthood for murder-for-hire.

These traitors can’t even de-fund Planned Parenthood.

Loser criminals should be tried for crimes against humanity instead of breaking their arms, patting themselves on the back for their grandstanding theatrics.

Trump redlines it in, signs and sends it back.

Then its the fault of Congress if not approved.

However, the senators behind this one have chosen to style it as a joint resolution, meaning it will require Trump's signature.

But the Senate cannot speak for the House. Calling it a "joint resolution" does not make it one. If the House refuses to vote on it, can't President Trump simply ignore it, saying that only duly passed bills will come to his desk?

It's being introduced in both the House and the Senate so both will vote on it, hence the joint resolution. And which senators or congressmen want to go into a campaign trying to explain why they voted against a resolution condemning Nazis and the Klan?

Thanks. The article makes no mention of this, and only lists Senate sponsors, so the House side of things must be mentioned elsewhere.
