I think some of the reps are making the calculation that the bill wont pass senate or will be vetoed so they vote to placate their electorate whom they perceive are scared and demand it.
Of course citizens are not always right ( the majority did not want to end segregation, accept Jewish refugees after ww2 and were fine with the internment of japanese americans ).

I called and emailed before the vote, but until now didn't know how he voted. He's usually thoughtful, but he also represents my area, filled with Republicans, and I know they've been beating down his door. I'm very disappointed.

There's no point expecting anything decent from Buck (my alleged rep), but this coming from Polis is a mindblower.

Well, they're off for ANOTHER vacation next week. Let us know if he stops in to let people know WTF he was thinking.

Bennett and Polis didn't learned any thing from Udall's defeat. Trying to appease right wingers is a losing strategy.
