Thread: CSpan2 - US Senate Convened 7:30am PT 10/24/07

A summary on the positions of senators - *Update*

So far, using NumbersUSA updated list, and combining with our own research here, 25 senators are appearing to be against the DREAM:

Allard (R-CO)
Bunning (R-KY)
Chambliss (R-GA)
Coburn (R-OK)
Corker (R-TN)
DeMint (R-SC)
Burr (R-NC)
Dole (R-NC)
Enzi (R-WY)
Imhofe (R-OK)

We need 40 or 41 (depending on whether Teddy Boy is on the floor or not) in order to prevent a cloture vote from proceeding.

If anyone has solid first-hand info from speaking with staffers from other offices, please pass it along so we can evaluate the info and potentially update the list. (thanks)

LaRaza will probably hire one of those 'skycrane' type cargo helicopters to airlift Teddy to DC so he can vote.
