Border Crisis: Lamar Alexander

border crisis: Lamar Alexander said on the Senate floor Thursday, according to CTV. But he stopped just short of saying he'd support a resolution blocking the president's move. Trump's move would turn a border crisis into a constitutional crisis, veteran Sen. Had Alexander pledged his vote, it would probably be enough for the Senate to pass a measure repealing the emergency declaration. He can build a wall and avoid a dangerous precedent and I hope he'll do that, Alexander said. Speaking later to reporters, Alexander, R-Tenn., warned what might happen if Trump doesn't settle for using other money he can access without declaring an emergency. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
