That's right, Margaret. Right now, individuals who want to come to America just to get a better life or to seek the American dream, to find work, those are what we call economic migrants.

Well, that's really a question for the heads of our Appropriations Committee, who are in the final stages of putting this bill together this afternoon.

I think everyone has an opportunity to be persuaded.

We will make swift justice. Folks who do qualify for asylum will be on a rapid path, six months or less, to start a new life in America.

This is an incredibly powerful tool.

If our law were in effect, this border would have been closed every single day this year.

We want enough time for the government to be able to process these asylum claims and then turn folks away who do not qualify, while settling people who do qualify.

They're not asking about elections. They're asking about their everyday lives.

The reality is, Margaret, that, while the current administration does bear responsibility for mishandling the border, we have to give new legal tools to the administration and hold them accountable to implement them.

The reality is, is that, for the last several years, cartels have used this loophole to exploit the system.

Our law changes that and ends the practice of catch-and-release.

We believe that by quickly implementing this system, individuals who come for economic reasons will learn very quickly that this is not a path to enter our country.

What I do have the ability to control, is what I have done over the last four months…

No one knows. Our law changes that and ends the practice of catch-and-release.

I look forward to working together on this year's Appropriations Bill to ensure we are providing the Department, Service members and their families with the Military construction and family Housing resources they need.

I look forward to working together on next year's appropriations bill to ensure that we're providing veterans and their families with the benefits and care and support that they need.

My office has been hearing from Arizona veterans and VA staff regarding concerns about unmanageable counselor's workloads.

Thank you, Lieutenant General Miller, the Air Force is still carrying out its recovery program from prior year hurricanes.

We're very lucky to have a subcommittee full of Senators who care very deeply about veterans and the veterans who have served our country so well.

Vet Centers provide a great resource that focus on the readjustment and mental health needs of our veterans and current servicemembers.

So for both Mr. Fisher and Dr. Kroviak, the Tucson Vet Center recently shared concerns with my team about their electronic client record system, and how it's slowing down the delivery of provider care.

What are innovative initiatives that you're developing to increase access for rural veterans?

How are the Vet Centers currently supporting staff to try and reduce attrition rates and help them manage increased demand for services?

Somebody made a terrible mistake somewhere.
