Senate Dems block amendment to restore veteran benefits by closing illegal immigrant welfare loophole
Amid the growing outrage over corruption and bureaucratic incompetence at the Veterans Administration, the House of Representatives passed legislation 390 to 33 making it easier to fire career bureaucrats at the VA. (The 33 “No” votes were all Democrats.) Senator Marco Rubio (F-FL) tried to bring the bill up for a vote in Senate yesterday, but Democrats objected. That’s not the first time Senate Democrats dissed our vets. In December they voted keep a welfare loophole for illegal aliens rather than stop cuts to veterans benefits. Remember In November!
