The resolution insists that any future trade deal between the US and Britain must protect the Good Friday Agreement. Speaking following the passing of the resolution Sinn Fein President Mary Lou McDonald TD said: “Over the past twenty-five years, United States Presidents and political leaders have been central to the Irish Peace process and the Good Friday Agreement. "That special relationship endures and crosses party political lines. "A future trade deal between the US and Britain post Brexit is the responsibility of the US Congress. "Today the congress passed a resolution to oppose a hard border on the island of Ireland and supported the right to national self-determination in line with provisions of the Good Friday Agreement. "The Congress also insisted that any new trade deal with Britain must be contingent on meeting the obligations of the Good Friday Agreement including the continued incorporation into law of the European Convention on Human Rights. “I would like to thank Rep. Tom Suozzi for introducing this resolution and Rep. Peter King for his bipartisan sponsorship.

  • Sinn Féin – Blockinghousing Constructionin Dublin
    Sinn Féin – Blocking Housing Construction in Dublin 1 2 Sinn Féin – Blocking Housing Construction in Dublin Introduction The following report examines Sinn Féin’s voting record on housing developments in the Dublin area and looks at three local authorities, Dublin City Council, South Dublin County Council, and Fingal County Council since 2018. Sinn Féin have voted against almost 6,000 homes in one form or another in Dublin in the past three years alone. Fine Gael Dublin Bay South Bye-Election candidate, James Geoghegan, in his own local authority of Dublin City Council, has voted in favour of over 3,000 homes which include a mix of social, affordable and affordable rental. Sinn Féin’s populist national political strategy and centralised control over their local representatives forces their own councillors to vote against housing projects that, in many cases, they themselves had originally designed and pushed forward at a local level. Sinn Féin councillors, who at the time led Dublin City Council, sought the delivery of more than 1,600 homes in O’Devaney Gardens and Oscar Traynor Road, only to vote against those very homes after millions had already been spent. Most recently, they led a majority of councillors to prevent the construction of 1,000 new homes in Santry which would have been built in three years and will now be eight years away. In Dublin Bay South, all parties - including Sinn Féin - agreed to the affordable scheme which will see 600 affordable and 300 social homes built in Poolbeg on the Glass Bottle Site. However, during this campaign, the candidate for Sinn Féin has wavered in her party’s commitment to the scheme.
