The Senate votes tomorrow on a resolution to end national emergency declaration for border wall

BREAKING: The Senate will vote TOMORROW at 12:15 PM ET on a
resolution to terminate the president’s national emergency declaration
for a border wall.

Call your Senator now to end the president’s assault on the
Constitution’s separation of powers:





President Trump's national emergency declaration is an illegal attempt to violate the laws passed by Congress and override congressional funding restrictions in order to build his border wall. It's a dangerous expansion of presidential power and an assault on Congress' role as a co-equal branch of the government. Worse yet, he's reportedly considering to do it again. Our elected officials must fulfill their oaths to defend the Constitution and swiftly end this constitutional crisis.


Wouldn’t this be a smack upside MF’s head if they terminated this??

as "supporting open borders." That's the one and only reason I can see for this vote.

NEVER trust them.
