In Huge Reversal, GOP Poised To
Kill The Border-Ukraine Package
It Demanded
Feb 5, 2024
This is not a surprise to anyone is it? The GOP has become notorious
for abandoning it's own legislation once they've achieved agreement on
it from the opposition.
Indeed.
GOP Opposes Their Own Ideas — If Obama Backs Them
Tue, 26 Jun 2012
One idea Republicans had been pushing was
a proposal for a bipartisan commission to
recommend tough deficit-reduction measures.
But then the Obama administration decided
to embrace the idea.
And, lo and behold, as Mike Allen reported
in Politico, the Republicans promptly
turned on their heels and repudiated it.
Six of the bill's Republican co-sponsors
voted against it.
Obama:
"This law failed by seven votes when seven
Republicans who had co-sponsored the bill —
had co-sponsored the idea — suddenly walked
away from their own proposal after I
endorsed it"

The National Border Patrol Council, which
represents approximately 18,000 Border Patrol
agents and support personnel, has endorsed the
bipartisan border security package that Arizona
Sen. Kyrsten Sinema and others have been
working on for months.
