The top two appropriators in the US Senate have reached an agreement on a $4.6 billion funding package to address the influx of migrants at the southern border that has been deemed a "humanitarian crisis," according to three people familiar with the deal.
The agreement between Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Richard Shelby, an Alabama Republican, and Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, the top Democrat on the panel, includes $2.88 billion for the Department of Health and Human Services to be directed to the Office of Refugee Resettlement, which administration officials warned lawmakers would run out of money by the end of this month without the emergency cash infusion.

$4.6 billion would build a lot of the wall. Instead it is going to support the invaders.
Not so good. Half the money goes to “refugee resettlement” not keeping their asses out.
Exactly they have no problem making sure their illegal darlings stay comfy. But not one more penny to try and stop them to begin with. Bastards! I’m sick of them spending my tax money on illegals.
The only reason Leahy is on board is he knows Pelosy will kill it.
If Leahy is involved, Shelby got rolled! Easy way to fix it. Allow only in not those that speak English fluently....and can program. All others rejected as unworthy.
Shut it down
Always an emergency spending bill
Shelby didn’t need to be rolled, he’s a Bush League Republican.
Like most of the GOP Senators.
We really have to elect better Senators.
Welcome Wagon™ money. WHAT A JOKE THE USA HAS BECOME.
Let them starve. F them all.
The Uniparty is safe again as they pretend to care about American Voters.
It will never see the light of day in the House.
Absolutely!
Republican majority US Senate: “Give the Dem donors whatever they want... thay’re our donors too!”
I’ll tell you who’s not running out of money. The cursed illegal invader males who’ve been working out at the local gym have military haircuts speak no English but carry fancy cell phones and little bleached-blond anchor babies courtesy of some stupid idiotic leftist American judge and who are swarming into Home Depots in Florida buying with taxpayer-funded welfare dollars cordless 18- and 20-volt Makita demolition hammers at seven hundred bucks a pop then shipping them back to Mexico. That’s who. You people are so naive. Wake up. You think they’re building patios with those tools?
“Department of Health and Human Services to be directed to the Office of Refugee Resettlement”
Good grief. Trump has an Office of Refugee Resettlement? Send them back don’t resettle them in this country.
????????? Refugee resettlement? A good start?
Diaper money
Cut it all off unless money only for wall, security
Deprives the leftards of bad photography, too.
Operation Trebuchet
A START???
Shelby is 85 years old...
He is a prime example of why we need
TERM LIMITS.. Where is the money to help complete the WALL or FENCE or what ever it is now called?
TAX DOLLARS WASTED AGAIN..NOTHING MORE...
