Last night. an amendment to the Republican welfare bill. which would have spared legal residents who have served this country in our Armed Forces from being cut off from social service programs. was defeated by the GOP on a strict partyline vote. That is right. you heard me correctly. Every Republican. save one who so courageously voted "present." voted last night to repay the loyalty. dedication. and service of these veterans with a slap in the face. They made it clear that Republicans view permanent residents who serve their new country in the Armed Forces as immigrants first. and veterans second. Instead of spending billions for star wars. Republicans should be taking care of their veterans.
