Seven Dems stand with ICE
from Knewz Hosted by Mystify Entertainment Network
Seven House Democrats broke with much of their party to vote in favor of funding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, helping advance a Department of Homeland Security spending measure despite strong opposition from progressives. Democratic opposition to the bill intensified ahead of the vote, as party leaders signaled resistance to funding the agency amid President Donald Trump's expanded immigration enforcement efforts. The seven Democrats who voted in favor of the funding were Reps. Tom Suozzi of New York, Henry Cuellar of Texas, Don Davis of North Carolina, Laura Gillen of New York, Jared Golden of Maine, Vicente Gonzalez of Texas and Marie Glusenkamp Perez of Washington.
