While considering HR 240, the FY 2015 Department of Homeland Security funding bill, in the Senate, newly elected Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) worked with Democrats and liberal Republicans to re-instate funding for Obama’s executive amnesty. This vote was on whether or not to kill the bill that contains funding for Obama's executive amnesty. If this motion passed, it would have stopped Obama's executive amnesty from being funded. The motion failed in the House on March 3, 2015 in a roll call vote of 140-278.
