Rand Paul isn't playing games- he just doesn't care. He will vote to increase the deficit through tax cuts but will use the deficit as an excuse to avoid helping people who put their lives on the line, and those people's families.

After more than a decade of work by the IAFF, Locals 854 and 94 in New York City and many others to finally get The Never Forget The Heroes: James Zadroga, Ray Pfeifer, and Luis Alvarez Permanent Authorization of The September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act passed in the U.S. House of Representatives, Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) has placed a hold on the bill, preventing it from advancing to the floor of the Senate for a vote and further delaying the help that 9/11 responders need and deserve.

The U.S House passed the bill last week by an overwhelming bipartisan vote of 402-12.

done

What is the reason for him to hold up the vote?

I read somewhere that Dems had language tied to immigration in the bill. I’ll try to find the source

This is horrible

As a reminder, there is now in place a voluntary evacuation outside of the levee system in New Orleans. 8pm is the witching hour - you need to be in the place you plan on riding this storm out. ... See MoreSee Less

Be safe brothers

With Barry headed our way, please keep these important points in mind. Be safe, give way to emergency vehicles, and avoid flooded roads.
