These 12 GOP senators joined Democrats to vote against President Trump's emergency declaration: • Wicker • Rubio • Portman • Collins • Murkowski • Toomey • Blunt • Alexander • Romney • Paul • Moran • Lee

The vote was 59-41, an overwhelming vote against the President's executive action.Lawmakers don't have enough votes, however, to override a certain veto from the President, but passage of the resolution in the Senate after it passed the House last month is nevertheless an embarrassing blow to Trump delivered by his own party over the President's top campaign pledge of a wall at the US-Mexico border.

a future President may well say that climate change is a national emergency and use emergency authorities to implement the Green New Deal," referencing a sweeping progressive policy proposal to tackle global warming. Portman announced during his remarks that he would support the resolution, but made a point to say -- as have many other Republicans -- that he believes"President Trump is right about the crisis at the border.
