President. with 1 day before the funding expires for the Department of Homeland Security. I rise to urge the adoption of a clean funding bill. It seems we are on a path to ensure that. at least in the Senate. we are going to adopt a bill that funds the critical safety and national security functions of the Department of Homeland Security without extraneous immigration riders. I encourage my colleagues in both Chambers to embrace what Members on both sides of the aisle have acknowledged is the best way to resolve this issueavoid a shutdown. enact the clean bipartisan Homeland Security bill. and address the immigration policies through regular order on the floor. By now. we have all heard from a host of people spelling out the many negative impacts of a shutdownour colleagues. Secretary Johnson. previous Secretaries. and many of our Nations mayors.
