New: Pelosi tweets that the House will not amend Emergencies Act--no "pass" for Trump




Nancy Pelosi

The House will not take up this legislation to give President Trump a pass.

Always allow Republicans to violate the Constitution *just this once* as long as it's made clear to everyone that doing so is not allowed for any Democrats... err... anybody.
