GOP Lawmakers Who Bucked Trump and Signed DACA Discharge Petition Got SHELLACKED in Midterms

Jim Hoft by Jim Hoft November 21, 2018

In June, 2018, twenty-three Republican lawmakers signed a DACA discharge petition to force a House floor vote on immigration bills, according to the House Clerk’s Office.

Nearly two dozen Republicans came to the Democrat Party’s rescue and signed on to give DACA amnesty to Dreamers.

This was after Democrats refused to deal with President Trump.
