Torres Small playing games with the border?

June 27, 2019

After months of denying that there is a crisis at the border, Xochitl Torres Small has finally spoken up about the need for more border funding. But now she and the socialist Democrats are playing partisan games, refusing to vote on the bipartisan border bill that just passed the Senate by an 84-8 vote, with Sens. Udall and Heinrich voting in favor.

While other endangered House Democrats are calling for a clean vote on the Senate bill, Torres Small is cowering to Nancy Pelosi and the socialists, despite the fact that she represents the district hardest hit by this crisis.

It’s time for Torres Small to stop hiding, do her job and demand a vote on bipartisan legislation to alleviate the border crisis.
