    This is incorrect. Again, people often vote for amendments but against the full bill, even as amended.

    It's a common maneuver even in major bills like ACA, which saw unanimous Republican support for several amendments. No one is confusing those sorts of votes with real any support for the underlying bill.

    Here is the full text of the amendment DeSantis voted for, can you identify the 17B in sandy funding he voted to approve?

    After section 904 (but before the short title), insert the
    following new section:
    Sec. 905. (a) There is hereby rescinded an amount equal to
    1.63 percent of--
    (1) the budget authority provided (or obligation limitation
    imposed) for fiscal year 2013 for any discretionary account
    in any fiscal year 2013 appropriation Act;
    (2) the budget authority provided in any advance
    appropriation for fiscal year 2013 for any discretionary
    account in any prior fiscal year appropriation Act; and
    (3) the contract authority provided in fiscal year 2013 for
    any program that is subject to a limitation contained in any
    fiscal year 2013 appropriation Act for any discretionary
    account.
    (b) Any rescission made by subsection (a) shall be applied
    proportionately--
    (1) to each discretionary account and each item of budget
    authority described in such subsection; and
    (2) within each such account and item, to each program,
    project, and activity (with programs, projects, and
    activities as delineated in the appropriation Act or
    accompanying reports for the relevant fiscal year covering
    such account or item, or for accounts and items not included
    in appropriation Acts, as delineated in the most recently
    submitted President's budget).
    (c) In the case of any fiscal year 2013 appropriation Act
    enacted after the date of enactment of this section, any
    rescission required by subsection (a) shall take effect
    immediately after the enactment of such Act.
    (d) Within 30 days after the date of enactment of this
    section (or, if later, 30 days after the enactment of any
    fiscal year 2013 appropriation Act), the Director of the
    Office of Management and Budget shall submit to the
    Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
    and the Senate a report specifying the account and amount of

    Exactly. Many times it’s a poison pill they try to get attached to neuter, destroy or make the underlying bill unpalatable.

    I agree, you have already answered several times that you can't find 17B of funding for sandy in the amendment DeSantis voted for.

    All you can do is try to correct the lie with the factual truth. But as we've seen with the MAGA election lie, it doesn't work. They will believe what they want to believe. But you still have to confront the lie/liars. It's kind of a hopeless situation and this thread is a microcosm of the situation as a whole.

    Whatever you are, you share an inability to accept basic verifiable facts with the Trump/MAGA/QAnon crowd.

    LOL. I'm a right leaning centrist. I'm capable of seeing thru the partisan crap, something you are unable to do. Desantis voted Aye for 17B sandy relief.
