It is an agreed upon bill that the majority deliberately left out of the omnibus bill in December. And why did they do that? They did it for political purposes. because they didnt like what the President was doing on immigration. They wanted to poke him in the eye. They wanted to add these riders enacting a radical antiimmigration policy. and they were willing to sacrifice regular funding for the Homeland Security Department in order to pursue their political objective. Ironically. in passing a CR rather than the regular negotiated bill. they sacrificed increased funding for things they profess to care about. They are supposedly all about border security. They are all about immigration enforcement. And those very things were reduced by virtue of their failure to accept the negotiated bill. going down the road with a continuing resolution. Now the clock has run out.
