The US House Of Representatives Passed A Funding Bill To End The Government’s Stopping

Jan 05, 2019|

The new US Congress officially resumed its duties on the 3rd. To end the government’s “shutdown” in the past two weeks, the Democrats who re-directed the House of Representatives pushed the House of Representatives to approve two government appropriations bills that night, but did not receive high-level support from the White House and the Senate Republican Party.

The House of Representatives passed an appropriation bill that day to maintain the current level of funding for the Department of Homeland Security until February 8, including $1.3 billion to strengthen border security, but does not include President Trump’s request for use at the US-Mexico border. The $5 billion building of the wall.

The construction of a physical wall on the US-Mexico border is Trump’s campaign promise. Trump and his Republican political colleagues believe that the border wall can effectively curb illegal entry and combat drug smuggling. The Democrats criticized the border wall as inefficient, redundant and expensive.
