The giant pork barrel bill eliminates the double border fence funding and has the biggest, most incomprehensible pork fund for encumbants ever in the rotten Congress's history! Message them, call them, raise hell and help stop this train wreck! Message each Presidential candidate and stop this huge stealth bill slipping through for their Christmas bonus.

No, you can't stop the bill. But you can stop the people who voted for it by not voting for them.

How? I think it is a disgrace; people always blame the President for headaches, mortgage rates, snow, rain, whatever they want to complain about, but it is CONGRESS that makes and passes bills; and have all those agencies that we are not allowed to vote for.
We need the fence along our border; if China could build and man the wall separating them from the hordes to the north, why won't our "leaders" build a fence to protect us from the hordes to the south?

I'm not sure we can.
What we can do is only vote for Senators and Representatives who are against riders on legislation and against earmarks when it comes to spending in the next election.

Probably to late for this one, but we can fire anyone who votes for it. Vote against them in the next election.
