I am encouraged by El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras' willingness to work together to address the factors contributing to the child migration crisis.

The reason I ask that question, I get this question at home a lot, because every time we turn around, the Vice President or someone in the administration is promising $100 million here, $1 billion here, and your budget's finite.

I think you involve the Homeland Security Committee, and Secretary Jacobson was talking about, DHS and State working well together, well if they work so well together, why is DHS not sitting at the table today?

The money that we are talking about is coming from the American taxpayers and they expect us to be a little more frugal.

We are trying to make smart decisions with the money allocated to us.

Congress doesn't have the money to fund it. The tree isn't out in the backyard.

Several years ago, then-Secretary Janet Napolitano said that she would rather have money to complete building a National security cutter for the Coast Guard...

I think Congress has a strong responsibility to the taxpayers to make sure that their money is spent appropriately.

I think as a Nation we can be penny-wise and pound-foolish.

DHS simply can't afford to neglect its oversight responsibilities.

The project has become a monument to mismanagement.

Congress should heed GAO's recommendation that no new funding be appropriated until DHS and GSA get their act together.

We have no idea who is in our country or what their intent is.

We need to learn from the 9/11 Commission Report. The reason we combated the stovepiping, the sharing of information, Americans are counting on you guys.

They expect you guys to transcend politics and focus on keeping us safe.

Americans realize that we don't [have a secure border].

I think that certainly is not something that we've ever seen before. So apparently there's pretty serious concern by people who are in the know.

I introduced the original bill to create an inspector general for the Tennessee Valley Authority, and I've always believed very strongly in the inspector general process.

We have no idea who is in our country. For us not to recognize that we have open borders...

Wake up, America! With a porous Southern Border, we have no idea who is in our country.

ISIS is interested in America, and they are interested in you.

Let's take this President to court because I believe we need to take whatever steps are necessary and in our power to rein in this administration and hold them accountable to the United States Constitution and citizens of the United States…

I think them settling with their creditors would help the economy.

I think having a balanced budget, I think doing things responsibly, paying your creditors back, and living within your means is a great start.

I hope they don't follow the U.S.'s example of printing money in QE1, QE2, QE3, QE4.
