The conservative leaders who participate in the Conservative Action Project have just released a Memo for the Movement entitled "Conservatives Urge Senate Republicans to Fund ICE and Border Patrol."
Conservatives urge Senate Republicans to immediately pass the budget reconciliation bill to fully fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol operations. Any further delay is an unconscionable dereliction of one of Congress’s most basic duties.
Senate Republicans have already failed to pass the SAVE America Act. They have failed to hold Democrats accountable for months of holding the Department of Homeland Security funding hostage. They have refused to work with the president to make victims of Joe Biden’s DOJ weaponization whole. And now they are failing to deliver funding for the men and women of ICE and Border Patrol – something that only requires a simple majority of votes under reconciliation.
There are no legitimate excuses for this outright neglect of duty. Americans delivered a Senate majority with the expectation that the basic business of the country would be managed. Funding border enforcement is the bare minimum of what the country is owed.
Senate Republicans must pass this bill this week, without delay and without further modification.
We urge all CHQ readers and friends to share this important information widely. Forward this message to your family, friends, neighbors, church and civic club mailing lists and encourage them to call their Senators TODAY. The Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121, enlist everyone you know to "up the pressure" on the Senate to pass the budget reconciliation bill to fully fund Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol operations.
