| Rep. Jim Jordan: ‘We Have to Fight' for Border Appropriations Votes |
| 2023-02-25 |
| [Breitbart] The only plausible tool to remedy President Biden’s illegal border migration is for the GOP to insert clear rules in Congress’ complex spending bills during the fall, House judiciary chairman Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) said Thursday. “The way our system works is: When you have a split government, you have to [win] on the appropriations bills,” Jordan told a committee hearing held in Arizona. But many establishment Republicans won critical slots in the spending panels, as top GOP leaders zig-zag between their voters and their donors. For example, the House appropriations committee is dominated by pro-establishment Republicans. Many of those Republicans voted for rural-economy amnesty, and are backed by the business-run Congressional Leadership Fund or by major Wall Street investors, such as Blackstone. The committee includes pro-migration GOP members, such as Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-WA), and Rep. Juan Ciscomani (R-AZ). Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX), Rep. Andy Harris (R-MD), Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL), Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK), and Rep. Michael Simpson (R-ID). The homeland security subcommittee is headed by David Joyce (R-OH), who voted for the farm labor amnesty bill in 2021. A 54 percent majority of Americans say Biden is allowing a southern border invasion, according to an August 2022 poll commissioned by the left-of-center National Public Radio (NPR). The 54 percent “Invasion” majority included 76 percent of Republicans, 46 percent of independents, and even 40 percent of Democrats. |

| #4 Appropriations is not a path to force the Executive to spend the money wisely or effectively. Having the immigration disaster be the number one issue for 2024 will force the Dem hand. All the media and pollsters will work to make that not happen. |
