Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, this resolution is a last-ditch, unserious effort by extreme MAGA Republicans to scapegoat Vice President Harris for longstanding challenges at the border. H. Res. 1371 is premised on the false claim that the Vice President was made a ``border czar,'' a fake title made up by Republicans and the media. This is a political stunt on the American taxpayers' dime. I wish they would put the same effort into immigration reform or passing budget bills. Let me reiterate: This resolution does absolutely nothing to improve the quality of life for Americans. If Republicans truly saw the challenges at the border as a crisis, they would have worked with Democrats on the bipartisan Senate border legislation, but they abandoned the bipartisan bill to please their Presidential candidate who wanted a campaign issue instead. We get political resolutions rather than solutions. The American people deserve better. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.”
