The fact that a LOT of people are doing this seems to be affecting at least some Republicans.. It only takes flipping a few votes to kill this bill.
For most US citizens, losing citizenship means being stateless. Nobody will advocate for us when we're in CECOT
Don't hope...call your congress critter
This bill is closed and likely to see a final vote within a couple hours
Yes, but the city officials had their boss replaced by state with one who had a mandate to cut spending. Wikipedia does a better job of getting that part right:
In April 2014, during a financial crisis, state-appointed emergency manager Darnell Earley changed Flint's water source from the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department (sourced from Lake Huron and the Detroit River) to the Flint River.[7] Residents complained about the taste, smell, and appearance of the water. Officials failed to apply corrosion inhibitors to the water, which resulted in lead from aging pipes leaching into the water supply, exposing around 100,000 residents to elevated lead levels.
The problem started in 2014, when a state-appointed administrator took over and stopped measures which had been used to limit corrosion, sharply increasing peoples' exposure to lead from the old pipes.
Be nice if she had made the flip before voting for the bill instead of after
Only enough to get 3 out of 53 Republican Senators to vote against it. That's a few percent. Not enough to stop it, which is what matters
They never really cared about that. The modern anti-abortion movement was dreamed up after pro-segregation churches lost that battle and needed something else to fixate on.
Or they're getting bribed and care more about that, or care more about the hate than anything else
