"If the President thinks that Congress is going to turn around and provide additional money for any of the defunded projects, he's sorely mistaken. These funds were already appropriated as intended. We cannot ask the American people to foot the bill twice for his vanity project."

"And now we learn that the President is re-routing $771M from construction projects to defend our European allies from Russian aggression, right after cancelling $250M in aid to the Ukraine for that very same purpose. Gen. Mattis is right - we need to put our allies over politics."
