House Rules Committee

Thanks to President Trump and Congressional Republicans, the state of our union is strong again. We’re making record progress and are well on our way to overcoming Biden’s disastrous agenda. Forward, for America🇺🇸

Democrats are fighting tooth and nail to preserve Biden’s open border legacy. Defunding DHS is just their latest attempt. Biden imported 8% of Nicaragua and our colleagues think “people should suffer” so they can stay…

Deporting Fraudsters Act is common sense – it’s hard to believe it isn't already law. If you come to this country to defraud the programs meant to help our communities, you will be deported.

DHS is the third-largest department of the federal government — charged with keeping Americans SAFE. Democrats are trying to DEFUND it. Why? They are so desperate to prevent the deportation of criminal illegal aliens that they are forcing 260,000 DHS employees and the American people to pay the price.

American citizens should decide American elections.

Flight canceled? Thank a Democrat.

When they tell you who they are, believe them.

Since Democrats’ DHS shutdown, in Virginia: -illegal with extensive criminal history charged with murder of Virginia mother -ISIS-linked convicted terrorist murders ODU ROTC leader -illegal charged with groping high school girls No more political games. Fund all of DHS now!

Democrats are putting CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS over your ability to get to a wedding, a funeral, or visit family. How long do you have to wait at the airport before Democrats put YOU first? 2 hours? 4 hours? END THE DEMOCRAT SHUTDOWN!

This is why fully funding @DHSgov is so critical. Yet, Democrats refuse to budge and continue to gamble our national security for clout. Republicans will always believe taking migrant crime off our streets is worthy of funding.

My Pay TSA Act will ensure that our hardworking @TSA agents can continue to get paid even in a shutdown. This is a simple, common sense fix to right this wrong and ensure our skies remain safe.

American elections are for American citizens only.

100,000 DHS workers, including TSA agents and Coast Guard members, are showing up every day without a paycheck because Democrats refuse to fund the agency unless ICE is defunded.

Americans want law and order. Democrats ran the other direction for four years, pursuing everything from their radical defund movement to catch-and-release. House Republicans will continue to restore the law and order they shattered—today's rule is no different.

⏰HAPPENING NOW⏰ Debate on the rule providing for consideration of H.R. 556, H.R. 1958, and H.R. 4638 with @virginiafoxx managing for Republicans. Watch here: live.house.gov

Democrats decided to mix things up & invoke the founders instead of disparaging them. It's an interesting choice considering they spent four years ignoring federal law. Our colleagues buried their heads in the sand over an open border—now they're doing the same with fraud.

Hunters and anglers shouldn't be subjected to an ever-increasing pile of costly red tape. H.R. 556 prevents the federal government from banning cost-effective hunting and fishing equipment without the data to back it up. Trust the science.

Delayed at the airport? Thank a Democrat. Democrats have voted REPEATEDLY to PROTECT criminal illegal aliens and PREVENT our own American TSA agents from getting paychecks. Democrats have chosen to make the American people suffer just so illegal aliens can stay in our country.

For 31 days, Democrats have blocked paychecks for 120,000 Americans at the Department of Homeland Security. Time to do what’s right and pay the Americans who protect us.

⏰NOTICE OF ACTION⏰ The Committee granted, by a recorded vote of 6-2, a rule providing for consideration of H.R. 556, H.R. 1958, and H.R. 4638. Thanks to @JudiciaryGOP and @NatResources for their testimony today.

Foreign nationals are actively defrauding the United States and abusing the system. Aliens who exploit the generosity of the American taxpayer cannot remain here. H.R. 1958 ensures they will not.
