Maybe she was saying "It was so wrong for them to make that hand-written date change on the last page." https://t.co/qTbE2qkb7B

Rounds/Collins goes down 54 yes–45 no. (Needed 60.) Hope Sen. Isakson's constituents don't forget. https://t.co/ffKIcnskXD

Rounds/Collins "bipartisan" Amnesty-Plus-"Home Free" Enforcement-Plus-Who-Knows-What_Else-Is-In-There bill is up next for vote in Senate. Still time to call! That number again is 202 224 3121

This was such a golden opportunity for Cruz (to separate himself from Cotton & compromisers, restore his anti-amnesty cred). He took it.

This is such a golden opportunity/target rich environment for Cruz.

Cruz on floor now making the "stagnant wages" argument before other arguments (e.g. unfair to those who come here legally).

Foolish GOP co-signers feeling the heat, backpedaling. No time to let up 202 224 3121. Especially Isakson & Rounds! (Didn't know what was in their bill? What other Schumer tricks did they miss? It's a terrible "home free" provision even if date is set back.) https://t.co/sr72iMiJXb

.@LindseyGrahamSC's "bipartisan" bill enshrine's OBAMA's enforcement priorities in law to force TRUMP to follow. Doesn't that violate Graham's appeal-to-Trump-vanity strategy? How did he think WH would react? https://t.co/noQNJxi4SP

Do Rounds, Alexander, Isakson, Murkowski really want to make themselves legit. election lightning rods–for supporting a huge de facto way-beyond-Dreamer amnesty for *future* illegals that probably won't make it into law? Help them reconsider 202 224 3121 https://t.co/egLE4gibBz

WH didn't quite say that, did they? Said aides would "recommend" he not sign it. Can't rely on Trump. Better to stop it now, which people can help do by calling Senators at 202 224 3121. https://t.co/4nUoMHiCoU

Who made the handwritten change? As @TomCottonAR notes, was awful even before the change. Still, hope the Smithsonian gets this piece of paper pic.twitter.com/UQ5YwT2SKx

Think it's really aimed at killing the bipartisan bill because they are really shocked at the "Home Free" provision tacked on at end. https://t.co/A0deDqoWSf https://t.co/GU74NH146z

It's both a "Home Free" provision (for all illegals already here) and a "Come On In" provision for anyone who can sneak in before June 30th, 2018. Unbelievable. https://t.co/mPWQ4G5xaw

"Bipartisan DACA deal gets hit from all sides" @CNNPolitics https://t.co/2coMc4QINQ Good example of MSM missing the big story–the sleeper "Home Free" provision tacked on to "bipartisan" deal. Press obviously badly briefed on it because Rounds et al wanted to sneak it thru

Did sainted "bipartisan" "Common sense" immigration gang delay putting bill out there hoping nobody'd notice the "home free" provision tacked on at the end? Snuck it by the MSM! Amazing lack of transparency/good faith. Never trust a bipartisan (or Schumer) https://t.co/DhDWgmVSu5

Huh? Trump admin. wants the Grassley bill, which is desperately trying to be bipartisan — and they have Manchin. Just because they oppose a terrible, sleeper amnesty bill doesn't mean they don't want a deal. https://t.co/3f4aOSjhn3

REUPPING: The Rounds "bipartisan" bill is worse than MSM's reporting, apparently. Sleeper provision tries to protect ALL illegals from ICE. Needs to be stopped today. Call Senators (esp. GOPs and red state Dems) via 202 224 3121
