Steny Hoyer Says House Will Cancel Recess Unless Government Reopens
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said Tuesday the House will cancel its scheduled recess next week unless the partial government shutdown ends and the government is funded.
“If the government is not open, we will not have a recess,” the Maryland Democrat told reporters in a pen and pad briefing with reporters in his Capitol office Tuesday.
Hoyer’s announcement comes after news broke that a number of congressional Democrats spent the weekend on the beaches of Puerto Rico with dozens of lobbyists and corporate executives, despite the partial government shutdown. New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez was one of the Democrats spotted at a beach at a resort in Puerto Rico on day 22 of the partial government shutdown.

So the House of Representatives can operate normally without “security”, but cannot host the State of the Union Address, because of concerns for “security”.
The public needs to flood Dems with calls for them to build the wall, since security is an issure.
