Statement

Location: Washington, DC
Issues: National Security Government Operations

U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) released the following statement today after voting for a proposal to secure the border and end the partial government shutdown:


"It's disappointing that the compromise proposal President Trump put forward did not pass the Senate today. This was a fair proposal that included bipartisan ideas to secure our border and end the partial shutdown. We need to build consensus now, and I hope my Democrat colleagues will come to the table to work toward a reasonable solution."
