Senate Republicans successfully passed a resolution to end the national state of emergency declaration from 2020 set in response to the coronavirus pandemic amid growing sentiment among the public that it’s time to accept the virus as part of the new normal.
The resolution to end the pandemic emergency declaration passed by a vote of 48 to 47 along party lines after Democrats, who need Vice President Kamala Harris to break ties in the 50-50 Senate, failed to get enough members to stop it. The measure is not expected to pass the Democratic-controlled House in order to make it to President Joe Biden’s desk for approval. More
Gosh. They’re so very brave when it doesn’t matter.
If this was baseball their batting average would have them sitting the bench……in the minors.
didn’t……..didn’t we send a bunch of trucks to dc? Is that over?
They only care about the laws that protect the state from the people.
No LONGER necessary? What? When WAS emergency power necessary?
48 – 47? Why were two Republicans missing? I don’t care about the Democrats who weren’t there.
As for getting sneaky, right, sure. Chucky and the dems would never have let this even come up if there was any chance of it getting through the House.
You say you want a resolution
Well, you know
We all want to pretend to change the world
You tell me that it’s a real solution
Well, you know
We all want to pretend to change the world
… evidently, there’s nothing better to do w/ taypayer $$$ than preening about voting on a nothing-burger
oh, look! we passed a resolution! … that’ll show ’em we mean business!
wake me when we start seeing blood on the floor of the Senate, below Pompey’s statue
Sometimes wisdom comes with age most times age comes by itself.
I don’t trust Barasso, et al GOPes as far as I can pee, and because I’m older that’s not as far as it use to be.
