Apparently they are not serious about passing their bill either or they wouldn’t be voting against it.
Next up, a bill to make e-verify mandatory and first illegal entry a felony to smoke out the Bush League Republicans who are still hell bent on making the USA into North Mexico.
And the Democrats are running in smaller and smaller circles.
Poor Soros and others spending all that money for failure. Bwahahahaha
The Dems create a bill to abolish ICE and submit it to the House leadership for consideration.
The Repubs say "great, we will schedule a vote."
The Dems complain that it has no chance of passing and claim bringing it up for a vote is a political stunt; so the ones who drafted the bill will vote "No."
Someone should ask them "Why draft the bill and submit it if you believe it had no chance to pass?" Isn't this the very definition of a political stunt?
Recalls the day the Dems under Chuck Rangel called for a mandatory draft into the military. So the House voted. Dems said Never Mind and voted against it.
I just sent the URL to all my email buds as a TRUE joke - hilarious! Before introducing it to the floor, I hope Ryan will rename the bill: The Pocan, Jayapal and Espaillat Humane Immigration Enforcement Act. That would put them in the spotlight of idiots for all the world to see....
What a bunch of losers. How could anyone vote for a Democrat politician…unless of course, you vote for a living.
Mark Pocan is a certifiable idiot. His previous legislative accomplishments include leading the Wisconsin lawmakers to flee the state to delay voting on Gov. Walkers reforms even though they were in the minority.
As I said, he’s an idiot.
Has anyone read this bill? It would abolish ICE in a year and replace it with a commission with 17 members: 4 appointed by each party in Congress and 9 “selected [by who?] from the major civil society and immigrants’ rights organizations and individuals directly impacted by ICE practices.” Among the commission’s mandate is “ensuring that total Federal employment is not reduced with the abolition of ICE, prioritizing the hiring of personnel to address the legal, health, and social-service needs of detained individuals, those seeking asylum, and those determined to be most vulnerable within the Federal immigration system. “
Yep. Got it, Lefties! Just being your sincere selves.
Here’s how this works. Dems draft a bill to abolish ICE. Republican leaders say that we’ll vote on it. Dems lose their everloving minds, say they’ll vote it down because it’s a political stunt.
If you’re voting against your own bill, why file it? Unless filing the bill was.......a political stunt?
Projection is real.
GDit, bring the bill to the floor and make “the Loyalists” aligned with MS-13, crime, rape, and murder go on record against the Patriots — We know how this plays out, make them either defend their inane and asinine stunt or make them STFU, either way, WE THE PEOPLE WIN!!!

DIMs are both lunatics and idiots.
I'll take Stupid And Transparent Political Stunts for 200, Alex.
I thought Charlie Rangel retired. This is the kind of crap he would pull. On a couple of occasions, he introduced a Bill to reinstate the Draft, then would vote against it when it came up. What a bunch of douche bags.
Someone on staff whispered in their ear “That doesn’t poll well in your district.” About Face!
We “will not engage in this political stunt,” Reps. Mark Pocan of Wisconsin, Pramila Jayapal of Washington and Adriano Espaillat of New York said.
Well, ash holes, you submitted the bill as a political stunt. Now you’re getting what you wished for.
