Republican Senate leadership is ready to throw in the towel on fighting President Obama’s executive amnesty. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell wants to yank the House-passed bill that defunds amnesty while fully funding the Department of Homeland Security and replace it with a “clean” bill that omits the defunding language.

Funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) runs out next Friday, February 27th. Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is still trying to get Democrats to end their filibuster and vote to begin debate on the bill. As we explained here, the Senate has voted three times to proceed to the bill, but Democrats (and Senator Dean Heller (R-NV)) have blocked it.

UPDATE: Today, Wednesday, February 4th, the Senate again voted on cloture on the motion to proceed to debate H.R. 240, the House-passed bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

Earlier today, the U.S. Senate failed to proceed to debate on the House-passed Homeland Security appropriations bill that defunds President Obama’s amnesties.

TODAY (Tuesday) at 2:30 p.m., the Senate will vote to begin debating a bill passed by the House of Representatives (H.R. 240) that funds the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) while defunding President Obama’s unconstitutional executive amnesty and winding down the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

Next Thursday, Jan. 22, will mark the 42nd anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the infamous Supreme Court case that legalized abortion. Thousands will travel to Washington D.C. to participate in the annual March for Life.

Tomorrow morning, Wednesday, January 14th, the House of Representatives will take up H.R. 240, which would fund the Department of Homeland Security. As you remember, Republican leadership decided in December that a “CROmnibus” would be the most effective strategy in stopping President Obama’s unilateral, illegal action on immigration. While passing the majority of the funding for the government, they placed appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security into a short-term bill that expires in February in hopes of defunding the President’s amnesty with a Republican-controlled Congress.

President Obama is the most lawless president this country has ever seen, and we know he will continue to rule by executive fiat until Congress cuts off his funding. The government is currently operating under a Continuing Resolution that will expire next week on December 11th. The House of Representatives has a prime opportunity to re-establish the separation of powers by using their Constitutional power of the purse to block funding for President Obama’s illegal amnesty.
