Barrasso said:\n\n\u201cRepublicans are committed to a safe and a secure America.\n\n\u201cAnd that\u2019s why today we are moving forward to fully fund our nation\u2019s security \u2013 the Department of Homeland Security. And we\u2019re going to do it without a single Democrat vote. Because of the Democrats \u2013 we\u2019re doing this in the face of their historic obstruction.\n\n\u201cWhy are they doing it? It\u2019s because they would rather stand to protect illegal immigrant criminals than protect law-abiding American citizens.\n\n\u201cThey want to defund ICE. They want to defund Border Patrol. They want to go back to the days where 10 million illegal immigrants flooded into our country. Criminals, drug dealers, gang members, all of it.\n\n\u201cWhat they want to do is dangerous, it\u2019s reckless, and it\u2019s radical.\n\n\u201cRepublicans are united and committed to a secure border and a safe America.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-04-22T05:46:42Z", "2026-04-22T05:48:06Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.barrasso.senate.gov/barrasso-republicans-are-united-and-committed-to-a-secure-border-and-a-safe-america/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.613592728972435, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
