Mr. GALLEGO. Mr. Speaker, this rule is a travesty. If we vote to
approve it, an amendment unanimously supported by the Armed Services
Committee--unanimously, all Democrats and all Republicans would
compromise language--to prevent President Trump from using our
military's money to build his border wall will suddenly vanish. It is a
legislative magic trick, a sneaky gimmick designed to disguise their
actions. Once again, Speaker Ryan and the House Republicans are doing
President Trump's dirty work. They want to make sure that Trump can
build his wall, but they are also desperate to avoid a clean up-or-down
vote on this issue.
