Another day I am Ashamed of my Senators. Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) voted to fund Pres. Obamas executive amnesty during the lame-duck session contrary to their earlier statements. They were two of several Senators who had come out against the presidents actions, but then voted much differently. These Senators, including Sens. McCain and Flake, had an opportunity to back up their rhetoric with action when Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) raised a point of order challenging the constitutionality of the presidents executive action while the Senate debated the 2015 spending bill. While 21 other Senators stood up and voted with Sen. Cruz, 28 Senators who had previously come out against executive amnesty voted in favor of fully funding it.
