General Discussion

Casar did better job than most Dems explaining the dems position but need to spit out details quickly and simply:

1. Dems offered bill to fund DHS except for ICE
O right now. GOP blocked bill.

2 iCE and CBP are already funded by “big beautiful bill” - not affected by shutdown. They are drowning in cash.

3. Trump dipping into big beautiful bill money to pay Coast Guard military and Secret Service. Why not did into that money to also pay TSA?

4. Dems want policy reforms for ICE - will block funding until reforms adopted. GOP refusing to negotiate. Dems already continued DHS funding once to parties time to negotiate. GOP won’t negotiate.
