Mr. Speaker. I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker. my friend is always a terrific and impassioned speaker. and I love to hear him. I genuinely do. but what he is saying is. frankly. at odds with the facts. Look at the record. It was the President in his budget who wanted to cut border security. cut detention beds. reduce aid to Central America. and reduce law enforcement. That was the Presidents proposal. Before this crisis. we had already corrected some of those mistakes in the FY15 Foreign Operations budget. So in terms of who has been willing to put resources not only in a law enforcement sense but in a humanitarian sense. it has been the majority side of the aisle. not the minority.
