all 49 Democrats approve[ 38 GOP as well. 12 GOP oppose. ] What is wrong with it then.
Be careful what you wish for.
“Senators on Tuesday also voted down several floated changes from Cotton and Kennedy, who were the bills biggest opponents in the Senate.
Cotton argued that his amendments were in line with the intent of the bill and would fix some of the worst part of the bill. But, he added, he still believed the legislation is deeply unwise and would result in the early release from prison thousands of serious, repeat and potentially violent felons over the next few months.
Kennedy separately told reporters that he wouldnt support the bill even if his amendments were added, saying, I just think the approach is wrong.
The Cotton-Kennedy amendments would including requiring that the victims or families of victims are notified when an individual is released. Another change would be to make publicly available the rearrest data for those released, as well as information on prior offenses by those released and the crimes for which they were imprisoned.
The Kennedy-Cotton amendments would also add approximately 10 offenses to a list that excludes someone from being eligible for the bills earned-time credits, which could be used to shorten sentences.”
Wall funding?
Well thats great but we need immigration control and a border wall now or well become a third world nation where our taxes will explode out of control.
Im thrilled that President Trump succeeded but I didnt vote for criminal justice reform I voted for Immigration control and freeing up our economy.
I agree.
Getting a tad bit miffed, actually.
This gives Trump a higher percentage of votes in many groups so he has 4 more years to get what you want.

I think you will get immigration reform. Much to occur in the next months, many surprises.

By Immigration Reform I mean Building a 30 foot Wall with Asylum controls. We also need a 20 to 30 year moratorium on taking in new immigrants until we can assimilate the ones we have already No DACCA and No Path to Citizenship for illegals.
That should reduce the number coming from the third world.
How’d that work in the 2018 mid-terms? Exchanging higher crime for more votes that won’t even materialize is just bad politics.
Blacks are supposed to vote for Trump because he’s gonna release drug felons into their midst? Okey doke.

I agree. I saw somewhere the other day that all illegals and other "brown" people are currently having more babies than all the whites combined.
I don't consider myself a racist, but it won't be long that, like CA., states like Texas won't be able to elect a Republican to a serious office. And electing a conservative President will be nearly impossible.
Seven paragraphs in and the writer still hasnt talked about the content of the bill - just the politics of the bill. Stupid author.
This bill affects only federal prisons which account for less that 10% of all convicts. No big deal in the overall prison system.
I trust nothing coming from Kushner (or Ivanka for that matter). When did we elect Jared Kushner for president?
Be pissed at the RINOs and the Dems - if trump only looked at the items we voted for, he would have a lot of dead time with the corrupt dems and RINOs (and “judges”) holding things up.
Between this and the bump stock ban, President Trump had a great day yesterday! #WINNING
Agreed. Right now enrollment in Texas Public Schools (K-12) is only 28% white. Thats a 7.5% decrease in a decade whereas Hispanic enrollment has gone up 28%. It doesnt take a genius to figure out its not going to take long to flip Texas.
Why was that disaster budget passed with 300,000 Indian H1 visas
stealing American jobs and Muslim Syrian Refugee invasion .
I am sick of this BS .
When do we stop this invasion !
I did not vote for Ivanka and Jared pet projects .
