41. It's about GD time.

I hoped for 60-70 Republicans to support the bill, but I'll take 35, and thank those who did support it. And a special thanks to Tim Ryan for calling out those Republicans who voted against it.
Unfortunately, true patriotism is a scarce commodity on the Republican side of the aisle.
As is honor, integrity, and respect for the police who put their lives on the line for them.

Partisanship seems to be the only thing they have in great abundance.
What a self-serving bunch of jerks!
