There's really something wrong with our country when this issue becomes debatable. FDNC

Thank you Sen Blackburn ..for caring over those children

Thank you, Marsha B.

Anyone here surprised that Durbin blocked this act??

[@maxstrongCW]

Did he say why?

[@markippolito3620]

@@maxstrongCW probably because he and the dems view any deportation as a lost vote... why else would he simply not require the tests to be conducted?

No excuses for not approving bill

[@PrggyWade]

He has NO conscience, period. Now, YOU get involved politically and run for office. Always speak Truth to lies, and YOU will win!

[@linksaiya]

He was ready with a novel to read when asked if anyone objected. Imagine going that far out of your way to prevent such a bill from being allowed to progress.

[@billwendell6886]

Yes, Durbin, make sure that the kids supposedly on their way to Disney World are really with Mom and Dad and going to Disney World.

[@tinaharris9083]

Durbin needs voted out!!

[@andrewczski1969]

You misspelled 'imprisoned'.

[@Duude125]

As a resident of Illinois it’s time for Durbin to go. As well as JB Pritzker.

Poor innocent children. Sad.

[@apborick5796]

I've always felt Durbin was kinda sketchy. Maybe the FBI should check his basement. FBI!? What was I thinking.😂

Mr. Durbin, what is your solution? Mrs. Blackburn is spitting facts and trying to save our union. At least temporarily implement this policy and see where it goes.

[@duaneadams5210]

When I still lived in Illinois, Durbin was called "Satan in a suit". He was a slimeball. Glad I got the hell out of there.
