🧵If H.R. 260 becomes law, $631M meant for Afghanistan reconstruction will be clawed back to the Treasury. After twenty years of war and failure, not another dollar should ever reach the Taliban.
H.R. 260 finally ends Washington’s blind commitment to relocate Afghans without adequate safeguards. We’ve already seen the cost. One National Guardsman is dead at the hands of a terrorist who entered through resettlement. We must put security first.
No country or NGO that props up the Taliban should ever receive U.S. tax dollars. This amendment makes that principle law. America must not bankroll those who side with our enemies.
For too long, foreign aid has meant endless spending with no accountability. H.R. 260 changes that. Taxpayers deserve to know their money is not fueling corruption or terror abroad.
America’s resources should defend Americans. H.R. 260 stops the flow of cash to failed missions overseas and puts our security and our taxpayers back at the center of policy.

Good for Rand. I think this passed the House last year from a quick glance. Rep. Burchett from Tennessee was the lead sponsor.
Where are the usual detractors? Do they agree with this one?
Where’s his No Tax Dollars for Illegals Act?
Google “Rand Paul refugee”
He tried to recently cut 6 billion to them
It was voted through by some of your Favorite Rep’s & senators
Ouch...
Serious question. Who are you? Rand’s brother, father, best friend who?
No affiliation
I post the good and the bad. I’m balanced.
Very interesting the usual detractors don’t welcome or post about the good. I think they’re just insincere?
They're not refugees.
"It was voted through by some of your Favorite Rep’s & senators"
You have no idea if I even have favorite Rep's and Senators.
Ouch!!
Paul actually did some work in between all of his extracurricular activities?
Whooda thunk. /s
He does a lot of things you’d agree with you just hear more loudly about the the stuff you dont
Which I think is a shame. But I do post them anyway they just dont get traction.
Does this include domestic terrorists? Demoncrats?
I post the good and the bad. I’m balanced.“
