    UPDATE: Gov’t shutdown will continue into Day 3. Senate will vote on a CR to reopen the gov’t midday Monday. Responsible governing requires working together & finding common ground. There are substantive immigration conversations happening that will solve DACA & border issues.

        Once the government reopens those conversations can and will speed up. But it is imperative that Congress comes together to find solutions in a way that doesn’t jeopardize military, children’s healthcare, and important gov’t functions.

        DACA has been around for about 17 years. What is taking so long? R’s now need a few more days? #BS

        11.4 million known illegal immigrants...our schools, medical and support programs cannot support these costs..you cannot reasonably budget this expense.

        You have reasonable concerns but remember that anyone buying property is paying taxes that pay for schools, medical and support programs. The majority of the immigrants are paying taxes that pay for the use of the programs. They also pay sales tax on purchases.

        Make sure you always do a vote late at night or when people are working and can't watch; you must be ashamed to do the Devil's work. #TrumpShutdown Tax bill was more important to you, shame, shame, shame. #TaxScamBill This last few days prove how mortally sick the @GOP really is.
