Rollcall for a House vote to amend the Defense Appropriations Act - TopicsExpress



          

Rollcall for a House vote to amend the Defense Appropriations Act of 2015 (HR 4870) to prohibit funding in the bill from being used to transfer DoD weaponry to local police forces. The amendment was defeated 355-62. Check how your representative voted. HR 4870 already is amended to prohibit funding to implement the Convention on the Prohibition of the Use, Stockpiling, Production and Transfer of Anti-Personnel Mines and on their Destruction. So: no to funds to reduce the number of land mines in the world, yes to funding to put MRAPs and sniper rifles on American streets.
