Four Myths Democrats Senators Know To Be False
"Reid" The Human Trafficking Bill
MYTH 1:Hyde Amendment Language Was Sneaked In
SEN. PATTY MURRAY (D-WA): “The provision the Republicans are hoping to sneak in…”(Sen. Murray, Congressional Record, S.1404, 3/11/15)
“…on Monday [March 9], Democrats discovered the abortion language that had been sitting on page four. They're now refusing to allow Republicans a final vote on the bill, potentially carrying out a filibuster that could last well into next week.” (“McConnell Puts Democrats In A Box,” National Journal, 3/10/15)
JOHN STANTON:<“Apparently Dems didn't know about abortion language until a lobbyist informed last night.”(Twitter, @dcbigjohn, 3/10/15)
“[Republicans] say that it was included in the legislation all along and that Democratic staff members apparently did not read the bill. Sheepishly, top Democrats admit that might be true. The future of the legislation remains uncertain, butthe embarrassingepisode reinforced the advantage of the old refrain often heard on Capitol Hill: Read the Bill.” (“Trafficking Legislation Flounders As Lawmakers Misread Bill,” The New York Times, 3/11/15)
SEN. HARRY REID (D-NV): “…these provisions, my caucus did not know about them.You can blame it on staff, blame it on whoever you want to blame it on, but we didn't know it was in the bill, and we are not going to, as (inaudible) said, the bill will not come off this floor when that language is in the bill.” (Sen. Reid, Press Conference, 3/10/15)
REID: “We can give all the speeches out here we want saying somebody should have read the bill more closely.”(Sen. Reid, Floor Remarks, 3/11/15)
SEN. DICK DURBIN (D-IL):‘What do you want me to tell you? We missed it’ “What do you want me to tell you? We missed it!”said Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) when asked why Democrats didn’t recognize the language this time. ‘It was an obscure reference.’” (“How Abortion Politics Scuttled A Human-Trafficking Bill,” Politico, 3/12/15)
MYTH 2:‘Would Make The Hyde Amendment Permanent’
SEN. HARRY REID (D-NV): “There is a provision in the legislation dealing with abortion. … it would make the Hyde Amendment permanent.”(Sen. Harry Reid, Floor Statement, 3/11/15)
SEN. PATTY MURRAY (D-WA): “The provision … would be a permanent extension of the so-called Hyde amendment.”(Sen. Murray, Congressional Record, S.1404, 3/11/15)
REALITY:Apparently Democrats Still Haven’t Read The Bill
S.178, Page 3: “IN GENERAL.—From amounts in the Fund, in addition to any other amounts available, and without further appropriation, the Attorney General, in coordination with the Secretary of Health and Human Services shall, for each of fiscal years 2016 through 2020, use amounts available in the Fund to award grants or enhance victims’ programming" (S.178, Introduced 1/13/15)
