    President Trump: "Many of those workers have said to me, communicated, 'Stay out until you get the funding for the wall.' These federal workers want the wall. The only one that doesn't want the wall are the Democrats because they don't mind open borders."

    Deeply disturbing and a painful video to watch. We must do deep introspection and have a real convo about what truly led this ref to make this decision and how an entire gym of people, many adults, allowed this to happen.

    Congressional Republicans managed to find 5.7 billion dollars for a stack of bricks, but they couldn’t find it to help working families deal with the soaring cost of healthcare, provide quality education for their children or access food when in need?

    . is the shutdown President. This is unacceptable & we deserve better. It’s bewildering that the President rejected a funding measure introduced by Senate Republicans w/broad bipartisan support. Republicans have given the American people a shutdown for Christmas.

    You know your immigration policies are purely hate based when not even a conservative controlled Supreme Court upholds your efforts.

    The Supreme Court denied the Trump administration's request to reinstate an asylum ban that barred claims by immigrants who crossed the border illegally

    No, the fact is you don't have the votes in the Senate, nor will you have the majority in the House on Jan. 3rd. The American people have spoken.

    We will NOT fund a frivolous wall that does nothing to achieve true border security. For and House Republicans to hold our government hostage over a pile of bricks is a pathetic political stunt. Is it 2020 yet?

    5 days before Christmas and we are facing yet another Trump manufactured shutdown. Congress already agreed to a bipartisan stop-gap measure, so when will finally put aside his messy politics and childish antics to do right by the American people?

    Voting in support of the First Step Act. This legislation is a step in the right direction and an example of bipartisan compromise. While progress has been made, there is still great work to be done to eliminate the inequities within our criminal justice system.

    The continued lack of leadership and sound judgment displayed by is frightening. To deny holiday paychecks to millions of Americans over an unnecessary border wall is shameful.

    This isn't surprising - yet another thinly veiled attempt by NC Republicans to suppress the vote. Instead of combating non-existent voter fraud, Republicans should look in the mirror and end the kinds of practices we saw in NC09.
