Mr. Speaker. over the last few weeks. many people have expressed genuine concerns about the appropriations bill that passed Congress in December. Unfortunately. many Washingtonbased special interest groups are confusing the matter with incomplete and sometimes false messages aimed more at fundraising for themselves than uniting behind our shared goal of stopping President Obamas executive overreach on immigration. I am vehemently opposed to the Presidents unilateral executive actions granting amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. It is the responsibility of Congress to pursue reforms and ensure that a strong immigration policy is devised. By extending funding for the Department of Homeland Security only through February 2015. the House and Senate are prepared to confront the Presidents unparalleled power grab without the threat of a looming. governmentwide shutdown. and we will do everything we can to stop his destructive actions.
