wiffleball 4,631 Posted April 5, 2019 WASHINGTON ― The House passed legislation Thursday to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act, despite the vast majority of Republicans opposing it amid pressure from the National Rifle Association. The bill, which reauthorizes the landmark 1994 domestic violence law for another five years, easily passed. But 157 Republicans voted against it, along with one Democrat, Rep. Collin Peterson (Minn.). For many of them, it was because the NRA was pushing them to oppose it over its gun safety provisions and warning that a vote in favor of the bill would be reflected in their NRA rating. -------------------- Oof.

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted April 5, 2019 Hmmm....let's compare. The GOP doesn't vote for a bill with slightly veiled gun control versus the Dems don't vote for bill protecting a baby ALREADY born from being aborted. Swing and a wiff. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your posts look like they could have been ripped directly from the DNC website itself. You consistently support the Democrat position in every argument. You defend Democrat candidates and individuals. You rip on the GOP every chance you get, never saying a good word ever. SURE you're not a Democrat. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
