Richard Shelby: “It is a game changer, is it not?”

I am deeply concerned, however, that the administration's failure to direct the appropriate resources to the crisis at the southern border has resulted in shifting the burden to the Guard.

We have got to get our arms, one, around the inflation first, and then try to boost our defense capabilities in a dangerous world.

Because the administration has refused to fund the construction of a comprehensive barrier along the border, it has been compelled to send the National Guard to deal with the consequences.

A lot of people, including this Senator, believe that the request is not enough considering the problems in the world.
