| The SCHIP program once again failed today due to a Republican minority which upheld President Bush's veto. On the side of the angels, seven Democrats and three Republicans:
Robert Andrews, Mike Ferguson, Rush Holt, Frank LoBiondo, Frank Pallone, Bill Pascrell, Donald Payne, Steven Rothman, Albio Sires, Christopher Smith
Three Republicans voted against it:
Rodney Frelinghuysen, Scott Garrett, Jim Saxton
As always, all of these House seats are up in this year's election, but this year is a rare opportunity. Will we replace Saxton's vote in the upcoming open seat election? Will we allow a Republican even worse than Ferguson to get a vote? |
