"For seven weeks, House Democrats have delayed the emergency funding that is badly needed for the humanitarian crisis on our southern border. They have chosen to pick political fights with President Trump rather than get serious about finding compromise solutions."

"So today, the Senate is moving forward on the border crisis. The Senate Appropriations Committee just approved a funding package with overwhelming bipartisan support. This a big step toward finally helping our overstretched agencies."

"House Democrats have stood by for weeks, doing nothing about the humanitarian crisis on the border. They've ignored agencies' pleas for more funding. Because the far left can hardly bring itself to accomplish anything other than picking fights with the President."

"So the Senate is moving forward. Yesterday the Appropriations Committee approved funding for the border crisis on a huge bipartisan margin -- 30-1. Now we need to consider this urgent bill on the Senate floor. I hope the needs of our nation will finally win out over partisanship."
