Political Quotes

“Once again, the Republicans have brought us to the brink of a government shutdown, this time, the Department of Homeland Security. For weeks, the Department specifically designed to keep America and Americans safe has been forced to spend time and resources making plans to lay off 30,000 workers and stop paychecks for hundreds of thousands of critical workers like the Coast Guard and Border Patrol agents and TSA at the airports. Why are they on this dangerous mission? So they can continue their futile and cruel war against immigrant children and families. Now I hear they will try to put the Department of Homeland Security back in limbo for another 3 weeks while they figure out some other mischief. This is reckless. This is irresponsible and dangerous. Shame on the Republicans for doing this. Stop it. Just pass a clean bill for a continuous funding of the Department of Homeland Security. ____________________”
