President Applauds Congress for Passing DHS Appropriations Bill
Statement by the President
To win the war on terrorism, we are staying on the offensive abroad
and protecting Americans at home. I applaud Congress for passing the
Department of Homeland Security Appropriations bill. These funds will
help make Americans and their families even safer through stronger
border enforcement, improved transportation security, and continued
support for police, firefighters, and emergency response teams. I look
forward to signing this legislation.
