House Republicans Pass Homeland Security Bill that Leaves Communities Less Safe
Press Release
Issues: Government Budget and Spending
"When it comes to the border, the bill relies on outdated strategies that we know do not work. For example, the bill would require $2.1 billion be rescinded and reappropriated for wall construction, a 14th century solution to a 21st century challenge. The bill also misses opportunities to make smart investments to address urgent issues facing our country -- such as providing more resources to counter the trafficking of illicit narcotics into our country, such as fentanyl and opioids."
