The House Homeland Security Committee passed legislation Wednesday that would provide $10 billion toward President Trump's wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, a step toward possible consideration on the House floor.

The committee passed Wednesday afternoon in a party-line vote, after dismissing all Democratic amendments.....

[[House committee approves $10 billion to fund border wall]]

Illegal immigration costs this country more than $400 BILLION DOLLARS to $600 BILLION DOLLARS every single year

$10 Billion Dollars for the wall is a pretty danged good bargain if you ask me- will save hundreds of billions of dollars every single year- just for spending, one time, $10 billion or so dollars (plus a small yearly maintenance fee for the wall and guards etc), and deporting people here illegally (which hte left complain would be ‘too expensive to deport them all- NONSENSE- it’s too expensive to keep them here! Even IF we spend a one time fee of say $100 billion dollars deporting them all- We’d still be saving 100’s of billions of dollars every single year by having them gone)

$10 Billion Dollars? Well worth the investment!

Let’s see what the senate does with it.

[Delta 21]

The majority there should be able to accomplish the very same thing.

But, but the Senate rules, the oh so sacred Senate rules! They are so sacrosanct. Nothing can touch the Senate rules.
We cant get anything done until we get rid of McConnell.

Aw come on now. Every home gets a little cluttered now and then. Good to see ya, FRiend.

Correction - it approved a deposit that gets refunded the the treasury after Mexico pays for the wall.

Kabuki. Globalist who run congress will never let this happen.

[central_va]

Hmm, they did the right thing here. I am not knocking it.

[ColdOne]

Yes they did the right thing. I just do not think the powers that be will let it happen. Just me though.

[central_va]

At least they are firing an opening volley. Let's see. Trump needs to get on the band wagon. We need to call Ryano's office and tell him to bring it to the floor ASAP.
