•      "Partisanship from the far left has put politics ahead of our national security and stripped frontline workers of their paychecks. At a time of heightened risk to our national security, it's critical that our nation's security apparatus is fully operational. We need to pass full DHS funding now, alongside commonsense ICE reforms - like those already included in the appropriations package - to keep our country safe and secure." Source: Rep. Ryan Mackenzie (Republican, Pennsylvania, District 7)

•      "Every day the Democrats’ DHS shutdown lasts, they demonstrate that they are the party of lawlessness and chaos. Democrats don’t want criminal illegal aliens deported, they don’t stand with our law enforcement officers, and they don’t care about the American people. They only want to satisfy their radical base. It’s embarrassing and a dereliction of duty. House Republicans won’t stop fighting to restore order, protect Americans, and fully fund DHS. This week, we’re bringing a resolution to affirm our support and gratitude for the DHS employees who protect our nation and emphasize the importance of fully funding DHS immediately." Source: Rep. Steve Scalise (Republican, Louisiana, District 1), Majority Leader of the U.S. House of Representatives
