Congressmen Brendan Boyle Encourages House Republicans To Fund DHS Long-Term

February 27, 2015

Washington, DC– Congressman Brendan Boyle (D-PA-13) urges his Republican colleagues in the House to approve a "clean" long-term bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security.

"Enough is enough," said Congressman Boyle. "The clock is ticking and the time to act responsibly is now. Our Homeland Security Department cannot afford three more weeks of Republican uncertainty, now is not the time to kick the can down the road. The country needs long term funding for DHS passed now."

"Every Democratic member of the House has approved cosponsoring clean, long-term DHS funding legislation, now it is time for Republicans to do their jobs. This crisis only exists because Republicans are prioritizing anti-immigration extremism over the safety of the American people."
