Georgia's
Republican US Senators vote against effort to remove amnesty
If there was any question in the
minds of Georgians about their two Senators support for amnesty, the
vote on Amendment 1157 should be conclusive. Amendment 1157 would
have removed the amnesty provisions from S. 1348.
Amendment 1157 failed by a vote
of 29 - 66 and both Senators Chambliss and Isakson voted against the
Amendment!
There is not much more to say.
Despite what they tell you, despite what they tell the media,
despite what their campaign promises were or are: when the time came
to vote on just the issue of amnesty -
they voted in favor of amnesty.
