Today is the Cloture Vote on Immigration Bill [first cloture vote fails; 2nd cloture vote fails]

7 June 2007 | Gulf War One

[Gulf War One]

This is the homestretch.

Call and e-mail your senators today, Republicans and Democrats, urging them not to table debate on this critical piece of legislation.

It deserves a fair and open debate of all ramifications. To do otherwise is unamerican.

Ask them to vote "NO" on cloture.

Keep bumping this to the top.

Today is the day.

TOS reporting Major Garret reporting bill is dead.

[TomGuy]

“Mr. Pryor - no.”

Guess who is facing re-election in 08? It isn’t Mrs. Lincoln who votes the party line.

[Da Mav]

Someone must have told Boxer it was an impeachment motion.

[tgslTakoma]

I’m at 38 also.

Three more to kill this thing...

[Bush gal in LA]

How many more do we need?!

[Petronski]

Not two-thirds, Jim, three-fifths.

[lexington minuteman 1775]

Wear and asbetos suit in that case. LOL. I got in on vote late and came here to find out...Cspan is not helpful because they dont run a floor tally..sigh

[Tennessee Nana]

Yeppers Chambliss came through for GA and said NO

:)

[RasterMaster]

Peel off 3 more....

They don’t have the votes, by my count. We could be celebrating here in a few minutes... Stay tuned.

WHOAH! Did you see that? Boxer (D-CA) voted ‘no’. I guess she’s got a lot of pressure in CA against open borders.

There’s no way they’re getting sixty votes. We get to keep our country (at least for a while).

[rolling_stone]

Collins no Snow no

[GiveEmDubya]

It’s dead! 41 votes against cloture.

[romanesq]

If she did, it escaped me. I’m doing a running fingers total.
But it’s smelling closer to dead.

Should be dead. Even the Rinos Snow and Collins just surrendered.

[JerseyDvl]

If this fails then one thing is certain.
Our voices are loud and they also carry weight no matter how the media spin things.
I am hoping that my faith in all things good is restored with the failure for cloture.

[Marathoner]

boxer voted no??????

Geez, you know where must've froze over. I'll have to take back...SOME of the things I've said about her.

[Man50D]

If it passes by two thirds, then Reid wants a vote on the bill itself later tonight or tomorrow.

Don't be surprised if that vote occurs at midnight.

[RasterMaster]

SHOCKED!

[Jet Jaguar]

Collins Snow Bauchus no

[don-o]

Is the head dead yet??

Will there be fireworks?

[eeevil conservative]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!
