We are missing an opportunity by not participating in the Green Climate Fund. I regret that this is an omnibus appropriations bill for all agencies except one: Homeland Security. That is wrong. Our Homeland Security needs the protection of a budget. not a continuing resolution. We may have very different views on what we should do on immigration policy. but that shouldnt stop us from allowing those who serve in Homeland Security to have the confidence that we will support their budget for a year. and that they can go forward with an initiative. I regret that. That is a missed opportunity that is in the omnibus bill.
