To the detriment of our security. many of my House colleagues have championed the harmful. acrosstheboard spending cuts of sequestration that restrict our intelligence and law enforcement capabilities and. in 2014. forced a hiring freeze at the FBI. They champion these cuts even as the Secretary of Defense calls sequestration the "biggest strategic danger" to our national security. and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs argues it poses a greater threat to national security than Russia. China. North Korea. Iran. and ISIS. Last year. the House majority took the budget irresponsibility even further by threatening to shut down the Department of Homeland Security over a partisan fight over immigration. All the while. Congress continues to prioritize billions in funding to respond to threats posed by a cold war that ended decades ago.
