Bergman: Democrats Keep Playing Games With Border Security
Washington,
February 25, 2019
Today, the House voted on H.J. Res. 46 - The National Emergency Declaration Termination Resolution. Rep. Jack Bergman opposed this resolution and issued the following release:
"While Democrats continue playing games with our borders, President Trump and Congressional Republicans are continuing efforts to secure the border and reform our broken immigration system. H.J Res. 46 is nothing short of political gamesmanship by Democratic leadership in the House. This resolution targeted just one of the 31 active national emergency declarations sending a clear message to the American people - regardless of the situation, if President Trump supports it, Democrats in the House will oppose it. "The number one role of Congress is to provide for the common defense of our citizens. This very duty demands a secure border where we can appropriately identify those entering. We must continue to be a welcoming nation, but we are a nation of law and order Let’s get serious about the work ahead of us: secure our borders and protect our citizens. |
