BETRAYAL: Senate Appropriations Committee Votes to Allocate OVER $5 BILLION In Taxpayer-Funded Welfare for Refugees – Here Are The 14 Republicans Who Voted Yes

The Senate swamp quietly stuck a knife in the back of President Trump and the MAGA movement last week after approving billions to refugees despite the Somali fraud scandals across the country.

Just the News previously reported the appropriations bill for the Labor and Health and Human Services contained $5.69 billion for ‘refugee assistance services.’ This is three times higher than the funding levels before the Biden regime!

Upon learning this, Senators Mike Lee (R-UT) and Rand Paul (R-KY) sounded the alarm and spoke out against the legislation.

Unfortunately, the Senate Appropriations Committee passed the bill by a vote of 26 to 3. The yeas included 14 Republicans.

Paul and Lee are not on the Appropriations Committee, so they could not vote.

Via Grace Chong of The War Room, here are the 14 GOPers who voted in favor.

Susan Collins of Maine

Mitch McConnell of Kentucky

Lisa Murkowski of Alaska

Lindsey Graham of South Carolina

Jerry Moran of Kansas

John Hoeven of North Dakota

John Boozman of Arkansas

Shelly Moore Capito of West Virginia

John Kennedy of Louisiana

Cindy Hyde-Smith of Mississippi

Katie Britt of Alabama

Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma

Deb Fischer of Nebraska

Mike Rounds of South Dakota

Here is a look at the bill text:

The only GOPer to vote no for more refugee funding was Senator Bill Hagerty of Tennessee. Democrat Senators Chris Murphy of Connecticut and Chris Van Hollen of Maryland voted no as well, likely because they didn’t think there was enough money for freeloading refugees.

Just the News notes that Congress has less than a month to pass the remaining nine appropriations bills that fund federal agencies in fiscal year 2026. This includes the one for Labor and Health and Human Services.

Call your senator to make your voice heard.
