Political Quotes

“I oppose this amendment not because I support the remain in Texas concept but because we are debating nonsense. This policy never happened. Why are we wasting time debating amendments to prohibit the implementation of nonexistent policies? We heard a rumor about this becoming a policy over a year ago. Despite all of the executive actions we have seen since, the administration has done nothing to suggest they are planning to move forward with this one. We can all invent amendments that prevent rumored policies from going into effect, and our bills would be loaded with nonsensical references to nonexistent policies. Digging up old, rumored policies that never went into effect and are no longer being discussed is a waste of our time. If I didn't know better, I would say my majority colleagues are running out of ideas on how to find failure with what the Biden administration is doing to secure our border. I yield back the balance of my time.”
