Schumer blocks Senate GOP school safety bill, angering Republicans

'You're a liar and a hack,' Sen. Rick Scott tweeted to Schumer after he blocked Luke and Alex School Safety Act


Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., on Wednesday blocked a school safety bill that has Republicans crying foul.

After the horrific mass shooting at a Uvalde, Texas, elementary school that killed 19 children and two teachers, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisc., asked for the Luke and Alex School Safety Act to be passed by unanimous consent.

The bill, named after Parkland, Florida, shooting victims Luke Hoyer and Alex Schachter, would require the Department of Homeland Security to establish a "Federal Clearinghouse on School Safety Best Practices" for use by state and local educational and law-enforcement agencies, institutions of higher education, health professionals, and the public. And it would require DHS to "collect clearinghouse data analytics, user feedback on the implementation of best practices and recommendations identified by the clearinghouse, and any evaluations conducted on these best practices and recommendations."

On the Senate floor, Schumer said the legislation could be considered if Republicans agree to debate on the domestic terrorism bill. Johnson responded that it’s "a sad day for the United States Senate," the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

Johnson later tweeted: "Not surprising that the Democrat leader would lie about the bill he blocked that parents of Parkland victims have been trying to pass for years. Dems aren’t looking for solutions, they want wedge issues that they hope will keep them in power. Sick."

Schumer would be a top rated POS if it were not for the other manure carrying around the Democrat flag.

When in company with Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler, Bernie he is just one of the guys.

Just another anti-American Democrat Marxist.
To Schumer every White person who doesn't vote for a Democrat is a Domestic Terrorist, but BLM and ANTIFA are great guys. Why should any republican want to debate that with Schumer the Brainless.

So what was the spin on this? Because Schumer didn't say outright that the Dems were blocking a school safety bill.

Democrats Are Blatantly Stopping School Safety Measures to Create Anti-Republican Narratives​



It was a no-brainer move, but Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer decided to play politics as Charles reported:

Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) immediately shot down the idea after Johnson asked for unanimous consent to pass the bill. “Hardening schools would’ve done nothing to prevent this shooting. In fact, there were guards and police officers already at the school yesterday when the shooter showed up,” Schumer insisted. “More guns won’t protect our children.”

It’s a blatantly dishonest take seeing as how codifying the program doesn’t necessarily add more guns, it adds resources for schools to improve safety measures within the school in a myriad of ways, especially for low-income schools.

Schumer decided to put the bill alongside the Democrat’s proposed “Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act” under the full knowledge that Republicans would never vote for it. When Republicans didn’t vote for it he could then say that it’s Republicans who are actually at fault for nothing being done.

But there’s a reason Republicans didn’t vote for this act, and it’s because Schumer’s bill is just the “Disinformation Governance Board” 2.0. As reported by The Hill, Missouri Senator Josh Hawley described it well:

The GOP compares the proposal, which sets up offices in the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice and the FBI to target domestic terrorism, to the recently paused disinformation board set up by the Biden administration.
“It sounds terrible,” Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) of the House-passed bill, predicting it won’t get 10 Republicans in the Senate.
“It’s like the disinformation board on steroids. Another way to look at is the Patriot Act for American citizens,” he added, referring to the law passed immediately after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks that expanded the government’s power to monitor phone and email conversations and collect bank records.

Schumer and the Democrats are playing politics, and for every game they play, more lives are put at risk. Schools could be hardened and made safer but Democrats are far busier giving the media talking points to make it seem like Republicans are resisting efforts to make our nation safer.

Schumer insisted. “More guns won’t protect our children.”


More guns would protect them just as well and more of Schumer's dumb-assed gun laws.

There’s almost no expression more precise on guns than “the one thing that stops a man with a gun is another man with a gun”.

Unless a shooter commits suicide, it ends with them SHOT or captured by men with guns.

The ONLY thing that protects our children is more guns.

Why do these - kids - attack schools and not police precincts or the Pentagon? Because it’s a soft target - in all likelihood no one will be shooting back. They don’t do it to be brave - they do it for notoriety. It’s sick, but they do it to be seen.
