Rep. Rosendale Urges Speaker to Take Tougher Stance on Spending and Border Security, Warns of Potential Shutdown
-
Rep. Rosendale blasts Speaker Johnson's staff for giving him "terrible counsel" and undermining his confidence to take a strong stance on spending and border security.
-
Rosendale opposes another short-term funding bill and wants to leverage gov. funding to force border security and spending concessions, even if it leads to a shutdown.
-
Rosendale still hopes Speaker Johnson will "do the right thing" on border and spending but says the buck stops with him as the final decision maker.
-
Rosendale completely rejects the emerging Senate bipartisan border deal, saying it falls far short of the House-passed border bill (H.R. 2).
-
Rosendale wants any border deal to include remain in Mexico policy, empowering ICE raids and deportations, and major investments in border security infrastructure.
