Err, it's Feinstein, who represents California, that's introducing this legislation.
Republican representatives have been pushing back against these bills. Representatives Amash, Issa, Labrador. Senator Paul.
Last weekend I was at the Colorado GOP state convention and I spoke in-person to Colorado's leading GOP senate nominee and he spoke at length of our need to block this sort of legislation. In addition, I spoke with State Sen. Tim Neville, who was the party favorite for the Senate nomination, and he spoke very highly of the efforts of Amash and Paul.
Of course, they're joined by Democrats like Lofgren and Wyden and Independents like Sen. King.
The GOP is not a homogenous group.
- NoGravitas 11y agoIt's really the establishment within both the Democratic and Republican parties that is pushing for this. It's opposed by more left-leaning Democrats and more libertarian-leaning Republicans.
- spdustin 11y agoI'm confused here - Democrats are "left-leaning".
