House Democrats Read Tucson's Sunnyside School District Ed Funding Proclamation - Video
By Editorial Board March 20 at 7:51 PM
DEMOCRATS WHO have been filibustering the Senates consideration of legislation to combat human trafficking cited concerns with language they claimed would greatly expand the reach of Hyde Amendment restrictions on abortion. But when John Cornyn (R-Tex.), chief sponsor of the trafficking bill and Senate majority whip, offered a compromise that would seem to answer their stated objections, it was rejected out of hand. Perhaps Democrats thought they could score political points, or maybe they didnt want to anger their traditional allies in the abortion rights lobby. Either way, it became depressingly clear that what they werent thinking about was the needs of vulnerable people, mostly young women and girls, who are the victims of sex trafficking.
The stalemate over the Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act of 2015 has now occupied two weeks, and with the Senate next set to take up the budget, its unclear when or how the impasse will be resolved. At issue in the legislation, which had been expected to glide through the Senate with bipartisan support, is a provision backed by Republicans and initially overlooked by Democrats that would prohibit a new trafficking-victims compensation fund from being used for abortions save for exceptions covered by the Hyde Amendment. Democrats didnt like the application of Hyde restrictions to funds that are not taxpayer dollars the compensation fund was to be drawn from criminal fines and they objected to the anti-abortion provision being in place for five years.
Mr. Cornyn responded by offering to create the compensation fund with an annual congressional appropriation drawing on the fines. Since all such appropriations are already covered by the Hyde Amendment, there would be no change in the political status quo on abortion. Can they take yes for an answer? asked Mr. Cornyn on Thursday, contending, Weve made a proposal to them to give them what theyve asked for. The answer was no.
Democrats unfortunately seem to believe that response is in their political interest. Not only are Republicans denied boasting rights for getting something done, but also Democrats dont risk running afoul of the abortion rights groups that are scoring the vote. The ill-advised decision of Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to hold up confirmation of Loretta Lynch, the first African American woman nominated to be attorney general, until the trafficking bill impasse is resolved only gives the Democrats a further motive, as the GOP can be hammered for stalling a highly qualified nominee for a top Cabinet position.
There are legitimate concerns about whether the Hyde Amendments provisions it allows abortions only in the cases of rape, incest and danger to the mothers life are broad enough to cover young women forced into sexual exploitation. But the question of whether and how congressional appropriations can be used for abortions has long been settled, for better or worse. There is, as we wrote earlier this week, a reasonable way for the two sides to compromise on the trafficking bill, but both sides need to be reasonable. Sadly, that was not the case for Senate Democrats this week.

Editorial: Democrats are the new party of no
IOWA CITY | Democrats and older Iowans would have to adjust their early voting habits the most if a bill passing the Iowa House requires absentee ballots to be in county auditors hands by the time polls close on Election Day.
Republicans would see an impact too, legislators say, but they vote in person on Election Day with more frequency than Democrats, those registered for no party and Iowans 65 and older, an IowaWatch analysis of voting data in general elections during the last 20 years shows.
Regardless of who feels the impact, Republican and Democratic state legislators trying to amend Iowas absentee voter registration law agree that changes are critical because ballots are not being counted when they probably should be.
The reason: U.S. post offices are not putting time-stamped postmarks on many of the absentee ballots. So we are throwing ballots out, and we dont want to do that, said Sen. Jeff Danielson, D-Cedar Falls.
Iowa law says absentee ballots may arrive after Election Day if they bear a postmark of up to the day before the scheduled vote.
But a bill that passed the Iowa House 56-41 on March 11 would require absentee ballots arrive at county auditors offices by the time polls close on Election Day in order to be counted. An exception would be given to military personnel and their families and others working outside the country who apply for ballots and return them by mail in time to be counted.
Some in the Senate think ballots clearly postmarked by the day before an election and received by the elections office by noon the following Monday to be counted, as well as any ballot received by 5 p.m. the day after the election.
Danielson, chairman of the State Government Committee where the matter now rests, said differences in what the House and Senate propose are not deal breakers. I think they can actually be resolved, he said.
Rep. Quentin Stanerson, R-Center Point and floor manager of the bill passing the House, was equally optimistic.
The language of their bill and our bill is similar, he said.
