This is very good news because what Senator would vote against this amendment? It should pass without any resistance. My only concern is what will McConnell do to stop it?
McConnell filed an amicus brief to the 26-State lawsuit that is backed by a preliminary injunction to Obama’s Executive Amnesty. But McConnell did that only because the 26-State lawsuit is going to win and he wants to look conservative, AND because his TPP efforts render the 26-State lawsuit powerless to stop the purpose of Executive Amnesty. In other words, McConnell is a scumbag.
Yesterday Obama said this TPP Bill is ‘personal’ to him. Senator Sessions has disclosed that the bill contains language that allows Obama to move migrant laborers into the USA and provide them with everything that his Executive Amnesty was to provide. The TPP Bill represents an end-run around the preliminary injunction against his Executive Amnesty.
The purpose of Executive Amnesty and now this TPP is to import a large voting bloc for the 2016 elections.
Via his amendment Ted Cruz just threw a wrench into Obama and McConnell’s plan to get around the preliminary injunction.
McConnell could not cut Ted Cruz out by moving to cloture. It can only be because the democrats would not support him as they want their amendments in the bill.
What Ted Cruz did here is vital and can have ENORMOUS impact to the 2016 elections and hence the future of the USA.
True words well said.
The wuss that is Mitch will try and kill this
