Some claim that the crisis at our border is a “fake” emergency. If killings, caravans & cartels at the border are a fake emergency, I’d hate to see a genuine one. pic.twitter.com/6qCUgV7fiX — Tom Cotton (@SenTomCotton) March 14, 2019

More evidence that Arkansas is ruled by the Trump Party. Sens. John Boozman and Tom Cotton voted to support Donald Trump’s declaration of an emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border. They were on the losing side.

The Senate voted 59-41 to overturn his declaration. He’s indicated he’ll veto the action and the votes aren’t there to override him. Cotton channeled Trump in defending the action in a floor speech.
