Tom Cole: “We do not control the border. The cartels control the border.”

We're going to be in a crunch time.

The bill before us is a clean, narrowly tailored continuing resolution that keeps the government open and operating. Nothing more. Nothing less.

It gives the nation and our constituents certainty, certainty that the government will remain open, certainty that our service members will be paid.

We want to take away the possibility of a shutdown between now and the election.
