My Rep (R. Frelinghuysen) is a bucket of nothing, but he generally votes correctly.

I’m pleased to not find him on that list.

Thanks for posting it.

There are two Republicans named KING

One is a good guy (Rep. King, Iowa) and one is a bad guy (Rep. King, New York).

Bad guy Rep. King (New York) voted against his FELLOW republicans (Benedict Arnold King of New York?). His first name is Pete.

Good guy Rep. King voted with fellow Republicans. His first name is Steve/Steven.

We’re purging them as quickly as we can. Look at your own Speaker in TX!

Four of these people already said they won’t run again.

It’s my understanding this wasn’t the actual budget, but the budget blueprint, it’s still important as it sets a framework with spending limits the committees can not exceed in crafting the actual budget over the next month and 1/2.

In all likelihood this ‘bill’ was more along the line of a continuing resolution. Calling it a budget is a real stretch.

And this abomination of a budget included money for Planned Parenthood and all kinds of other things to gain bipartisan support? How did that work for you Rino’s?

I want to know which GOP reps voted against the bill.

I’m sick of Rats sticking together no matter what and our guys breaking ranks and voting with Rats.

Thank you for the list. As far as I’m concerned there should be bullseyes on all of these Republicans, out-primary them this year.

And......what is your problem, Paul Ryan? And Mr. Majority Leader and Majority Whip? You should be maintaining better party discipline—even if that means busting some of these @holes from committees and moving their offices to the basement restrooms.

This is the House. All their terms end on January 3, 2019.

And hopefully Paul Ryan didn’t sneak other items into the bill.

Based on the names it looks like some moderates, who probably thought that the budget cut too much, and conservatives, who probably thought the budget didn’t cut enough.

Unless I’m misreading the news stories on this, this passed because the budget left the local tax deductions in place. As predicted, there were enough Republicans in CA, IL, NY and NJ to torpedo that idea.

Whether that idea is permanently dead or not, I don’t know.

What would happen to Trump if he signs a budget with no wall funding?

The fact that it is a GOP House and they didn’t give Trump the original cuts he wanted, and more, is disappointing.

At least some of those voted no because there is still too much sending.

Called LoBiondo’s office.

Gave him a piece of my mind.

Told (the woman who answered the phone) he was part of the Swamp and should be replaced - how dare he not support the President! Also said I was glad I don’t vote for him anymore - don’t vote D, just leave that part blank - no vote in that category.
