Mr. Chair. today the Majority has chosen to hold the Department of Homeland Security hostage with their extreme antiimmigrant policies. Rather than pass a bipartisan bill that would fund the agency tasked with securing our border and protecting our citizens from terrorism and violencethe Majority will consider poison pill amendments to appease an extreme faction of their party. Playing politics with our national security is not responsible governance. First. the Republican party is playing politics with the lives. safety and security of the American people. In the wake of the recent Paris tragedy. it is all too apparent that we need smart enforcement policies that protect the American people and root out any terror threats.
