Vote 157 - 109th Congress, 2nd Session

The Senate vote was 62-36 for passage. "The usual suspects," for the most part, adding in Bennett, Brownback, Gregg (a NWO dude), Lugar, and McConnell. Landrieu was in the AYE column too. The only DEMs against were Byrd, Dorgan, Nelson of Nebraska, and Stabenow.

Some sort of immigration amnesty is inevitable. Congress (actually, the government as a whole, but in this case it'll be Congress) is expert at making profound errors, then compounding them.

But in 2007, it was 53 - 46 against. The House defeated amnesty in 2006, and the Senate defeated it in 2007. Looking at that 2007 Senate vote, there are many questions about how some of them would vote this year, if it comes to a vote again.

Bayh a Nay, and Lugar a Yes in 2007. Lugar is a RINO on par with McCain and Graham, but he mostly seems to fly under the RINO radar.

Another interesting change: Trent Lott of Mississippi voted Yes in 2007. He’s gone, so that should be a changed vote.
