    It’s a shame that border security has become a partisan issue, especially since my Democratic colleagues have long supported & voted for it. We have a unique opportunity to fix #DACA, protect #Dreamers, & improve border security in a bipartisan way – let’s do this.pic.twitter.com/EjB4qGSGi8

        The real shame is, that you are using innocent children as leverage to build a wall that is not for border security, but rather Trump's grotesque, taxpayer-funded monument to himself. Border security is one thing, the wall is another. We can have better border security w/o wall

        It is a shame, and that shame is sitting in the White House. Do not pin this on your Democratic colleagues.

        Here's what deeply troubles me. Our president knowingly put hundreds of thousands of DACA families at risk because he wanted a symbolic win--a political win. That is inhumane and immoral. Please do not cooperate.https://www.axios.com/scoop-trumps-the-wall-moment-1515411901-56516556-3824-49b9-9cd5-3e3dba7d5e26.html …

        Anyone who would hold children hostage to build that useless, uneffective border wall is morally corrupt beyond belief.

        The way you play w/ words is disturbing. No one is "against" border security, you dolt...they are against wasting $18B (at least) on a wall that isn't necessary to accomplish the goal...that WE will have to pay for. Divisive and disingenuous PARTISAN language isn't helpful.

        He mentions #DACA and fails to mention the wall (b/c he knows one has wide support,the other does not), when he KNOWS the wall IS the hold up. The words he uses are intentional to frame the argument, even as he uses "bipartisan" in the same post, like we're too stupid to notice🙄

        Of course your Democratic colleagues support border security. They do not support, nor do most of your constituents, a nonsensical wall whose only purpose is a monument to Trump. Please don’t patronize us with your partisan drivel. BTW, didn’t Trump promise us Mexico is paying?

        Democrats are still for border security (and You know it) they are not for a wall that law enforcement says is a waste.

        Dems do support border security, but only measures that make sense. But not billions of dollars on a wall that won't stop drug smugglers or illegal immigrants. I support efforts to protect Dreamers and increase border security.

        Border security is not partisan. A stupid f’ing wall is partisan. You are holding dreamers hostage over a wall we don’t need.

        It’s a shame that child healthcare has become a partisan issue, especially since Republicans claim to be pro-life and have long supported & voted for it. You have had an opportunity to #FundCHIPNow , protect children, & improve health outcomes in a bipartisan way – now do it.
