Virtually nothing fails on the Senate floor, but their colleagues asked for a floor vote so their ignorance could be documented.

Sen. Joseph Addabbo Jr.
Sen. Darrel Aubertine
Sen. Ruben Diaz, Sr.
Sen. Shirley Huntley
Sen. Carl Kruger
Sen. Hiram Monserrate
Sen. George Onorato
Sen. William Stachowski

You know what’s even more sickening? These aren’t DINOs representing backwoods districts in Upstate New York. Six of these Senators represent districts within New York City’s five boroughs.

 What a goddamn disappointment. This issue is so black and white to me that I don’t see how anyone could vote against equality

When doing your Christmas cards, take one and send it to this address

Pass this on… think of how many cards these special people will get!

I really hate this country sometimes.

this is sick and wrong

Edit: furthermore, i wonder if it will impact charitable giving

Some commenters on the Chronicle article are cheering and saying they will give more now that they know only legal residents will benefit.

This article hurts my heart.  You have to bring this down to the micro, personal level.  What this charity is doing is denying an underprivileged child the simple joy of receiving a gift for the holidays, something that many of us take for granted.  Sure, its easy to color your opinion of this story with your personal feelings on immigration but that’s looking at this from the macro perspective.  When you get down low you’re dealing with people, people who could use a little kindness.
