Time for me to look up what my rep voted for

To save everyone a moment

The seven Democrats who sided with Republicans were Reps. Henry Cuellar (Texas), Jared Golden (Maine), Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Wash.), Laura Gillen (N.Y.), Don Davis (N.C.), Tom Suozzi (N.Y.) and Vicente Gonzalez (Texas).

Oh huh. I may have been thinking of a different, earlier vote where he voted to fund them. He’s not on that list.

yeah there was a different funding bill where the local dem voted with the gop. I was sharpening my pitchfork too

Shocked and abhorred that Maine's rep voted for that considering they've been getting hit by ICE hard in Portland, Maine.
