For over a month, Democrats have shut down the Department of Homeland Security — inflicting pain on over 100,000 American families missing paychecks and causing widespread disruption to millions of travelers across the country.

Democrats have misrepresented negotiations in the press, been unresponsive, prolonged the suffering of hardworking Americans, boasted that they are “very serene” about this dangerous shutdown and are now openly admitting they are “making people hurt.”

The Trump Administration has negotiated in good faith from day one to fully fund DHS and avoid this dangerous shutdown, but instead of working towards a solution, Democrats have responded with a list of unserious, extreme demands that would seek to reinstitute Biden’s failed open-border agenda, protect criminal illegal aliens, and put American citizens — and the law enforcement officers who defend them — in danger.

Let’s be clear: these attempts to defund our federal law enforcement agents and border security are unacceptable to the American people.

Instead of working in good faith, Democrats continue pushing dangerous policies that would roll back this Administration’s historic progress on border security and law enforcement, putting officers, their families, and the American people in harm’s way.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Defund-the-police Democrats want to reverse the historic successes of this administration, risk our law enforcement officers’ safety, defund border security operations, and prioritize violent illegal aliens over the American people, AGAIN.

Democrats’ demands are dangerous.

As we reach day 34 of this Democrat shutdown, the solution is simple: Democrats must stop playing politics, abandon these reckless demands, and join us in fully funding the Department of Homeland Security.
