Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) faces a tough decision about whether to support President Trump's emergency declaration at the border, while he ramps up for a reelection run in 2020. REUTERS/Joshua RobertsOn The HillON THE RECORD: Republican senators up for reelection in 2020 face a major loyalty test to President Trump when they must decide later this week whether to embrace or reject the president's signature issue on the Senate floor. “Unless you get the president to sign this thing or there is a veto override, the vote is symbolic,” Amar told Power Up. Cornyn plans to support Trump in this battle, but building the wall in his Texas could attract all kinds of controversy, including eminent domain battles against the government to retain control over private property. If the facts don't support it, we won't,” said Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.), who sits on Judiciary and is a leadership member, told Politico.
