Rather than listening to the American people and creating laws that actually do something. the Republicans have decided to spend the next 2 weeks voting on things we have already voted on. Mr. Speaker. voting on a fence today. especially when it is already part of legislation to be moved. isnt going to solve our border security woes. Indeed. voting on a fence without allocating funds to pay for it is just another example of Republican efforts to sell security on the cheap to the American people. I have seen estimates that just to build the fence is going to cost us at least $7 billion.
