GRAND RAPIDS, MI — A familiar name to West Michigan residents appears among a list of House Democrats pushing to block President Donald Trump’s emergency declaration — U.S. Rep. Justin Amash.

Amash, of Cascade Township, as of Friday morning was reportedly the lone House Republican to sign onto the resolution of disapproval, a document the Associated Press characterized as a “one-sentence statement that says Trump’s emergency declaration ‘is hereby terminated.’”

Amash’s chief of staff, Poppy Nelson, confirmed that Amash signed the resolution but declined further comment. She pointed to previous Twitter posts by Amash, in which he said, “A national emergency declaration for a non-emergency is void.”

A national emergency declaration for a non-emergency is void. A prerequisite for declaring an emergency is that the situation requires immediate action and Congress does not have an opportunity to act. @POTUS @realDonaldTrump is attempting to circumvent our constitutional system. — Justin Amash (@justinamash) February 15, 2019

The resolution’s author is Rep. Joaquin Castro, a Democrat from Texas. His office could not immediately be reached Friday afternoon to confirm whether Amash was still the only House Republican to sign on in support of the measure.

Trump declared the national emergency last week, in an effort to secure the money he needs to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. The move has drawn fierce opposition, including from Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, who on Tuesday joined 15 other state attorneys general in a lawsuit against the Trump administration in response to the emergency declaration.

Trump wants to divert $3.6 billion from military construction projects to pay for the wall.

The New York Times reported earlier Friday that 220 House Democrats and Amash had signed the resolution of disapproval. Congress can use the resolution to end Trump’s emergency declaration if “there is concern that the president has used his powers irresponsibly," the newspaper reported.

The Senate must take up the resolution “within 18 days of its passage in the House,” the Times reported.
