Congress Must Not Reduce Border Security Spending

The Senate reconciliation bill is critical in reflecting President Trump's agenda that voters endorsed, focusing on border security, military revitalization, and reducing wastage. The House version proposes over $150 billion for border security and defense, essential for combating rising threats and illegal immigration. Recent riots underscore the urgency for bolstered funding for law enforcement and Customs and Border Protection. However, the Senate's potential cuts to defense related to border security risk undermining these priorities, drawing concerns from conservatives who believe in reversing previous open-border policies.

The recent push to reduce border security funding in the Senate reconciliation bill undermines the priorities that President Trump put forth, which Americans support.

The House version of the bill, in line with Trump’s agenda, emphasizes significant investments in border security and military defense amidst rising domestic unrest.
