Minnesota’s Democratic governor said he plans to appoint Lt. Gov. Tina
Smith to succeed Democratic Sen. Al Franken, who is resigning over
allegations of sexual misconduct, and endorsed her for next year’s special

Ms. Smith, 59 years old, joined Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton for his second
term starting in 2015. She previously worked as Mr. Dayton’s chief of staff.

YORK TIMES
华盛顿——周三,特朗普总统在电视直播中支持枪支管制,令共和党人感到震惊。他在
白宫敦促一群议员重新启动枪支安全立法。该立法行动多年来一直遭到强大的美国步枪
协会(National Rifle Association)和共和党绝大多数成员的反对。
在罗斯福厅举行的一次引人注目的会议上,在欣喜的民主党人和脸色阴沉的共和党人面
前,总统大大背离了美国步枪协会的主张。他呼吁制定全面的枪支管制法案,扩大对在
枪支展和互联网上购买武器的背景核查,防止精神病患者获得枪支,保卫学校的安全,
限制某些年轻人购买枪支。他甚至建议就攻击性武器禁令展开对话。
特朗普在会上一度建议,执法当局应该有权在不经过法院的情况下,从精神病患者或其
他危险人物手中夺取枪支。“我倾向于先夺取枪支,”他说。他还说,“先夺枪,再走
该走的程序。”
总统的声明导致美国步枪协会的游说者纷纷向国会山的盟友们打去电话。该协会还发表
了一份声明,称特朗普提出的是“糟糕的政策”。共和党议员或者发表声明或者告诉记

现在‘comprehensive immigration reform’已经不可能了,就是说H1b+绿卡一起改革
已经没有希望了。单纯要H1b改革还是有可能。
希望这个运动的发起人,试试发动Marco Rubio吧,他今年前就已经跟Hatch和
Klobuchar co-sponsor了一个Immigration Innovation (“I-Squared”) bill
这个bill说了好几年了,最近还有lobbyist在capital hill四处whip votes,但是一直
没有什么大进展,为什么?
就是因为这个bill牵扯到Rubio的政绩,也就牵扯到2016的presidential election。。
GOP内斗,再加上bipartisan politics,政治环境变得异常复杂。。 |
