AFGE Union President Responds to DHS Funding Agreement

Vital national security programs, services to continue for rest of fiscal year

WASHINGTON – American Federation of Government Employees National President J. David Cox Sr. today issued the following statement:

“After taking us to the brink of a shutdown, lawmakers finally have seen the light of day and approved a funding bill that will ensure operations at the Department of Homeland Security will continue uninterrupted through the rest of the fiscal year. DHS employees safeguard our borders, skies, waterways, public buildings, and communities. It’s unfortunate that the 230,000 federal employees who work at this vital department had to face the prospect of not going to work, or working and not getting paid, due to a manufactured crisis that was completely avoidable.”

The immigration matter is still on hold per the judges say so.

Obama's minions can ask him to rescind his order. If he does not...then it has to go elsewhere to settle the legalities of the matter.

...lawmakers finally have seen the light of day and approved...

Misuse of that phrase. Sounds like Davy may have been drunk or something.

The correct phrase would have been "seen the light". Morons are everywhere in the Federal gubmint these days.

And now back to letting the 5 million illegals get SS cards, financial benefits, driver licenses, and voting cards. Screw the Judge’s orders- Obama will just continue to do executive orders and the wussy little republicans will cave and wet their pants next time they threaten to shut us down. Woot woot.
