GOP gives Dems a budget WITHOUT funding Trump’s WALL!!
- 7 years ago
The treacherous traitors of the GOP have stabbed Trump in the back by offering the Dems a budget without funding his luxurious, expensive, and likely inefficient border wall!!!
Congressional Republicans have offered Democrats a government funding deal that does not include new funds for the construction of a border wall, according to congressional aides familiar with the offer.
The move from GOP leaders comes as Capitol Hill scrambles to pass a government funding measure by midnight Friday to avert a shutdown on President Donald Trump’s 100th day in office.
The latest proposal doesn’t include funding for construction of a U.S.-Mexico border wall, but would allocate money to other border security initiatives, such as surveillance technology. News of the offer was first reported by The Washington Post.
“I think sometimes we get hung up on the semantics rather than really looking at what a really good system should include,” said Sen. John Hoeven, R-North Dakota, pointing to border security elements that have bipartisan support like technology and personnel.
