He is ignoring the explicit will of Congress in order to build his big, beautiful, and useless vanity border wall. This should alarm every member of Congress, and the Appropriations Committee will not forget this as we continue our work to complete the fiscal year 2020 appropriations process. Congress is a coequal branch of government that cannot be ignored by the tweets and tantrums of a President determined to fulfill a cynical campaign promise, which he promised that Mexico would pay for. For three years, President Trump has failed to convince Congress that his wall is a good idea, and he has failed to convince Congress that this is a real national emergency. I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to overturn the President's veto. # # # # # Press Contact David Carle: 202-224-3693 Previous Article 1 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
