Donald Trump Urges Congress to Block Border Security Package | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

On Capitol Hill, talks continue on a border security package that would unlock aid to Ukraine and Israel. Senators have been working on it for weeks and no one really knows what's in it, plus former President Donald Trump is urging Republicans in Congress to block it. The text still isn't out and the rumors are flying -everything from how many migrants are going to be allowed into the country, to which ports of entry will remain open to parole processing times. Lawmakers are frustrated. Senator James Lankford says, "Reading the bill, it's always so funny to us. We talk a lot as Republicans that we don't want to vote on something until we read it. I encourage people to have the exact same principle right now." Regarding Trump saying the deal is a disaster for America, Senator Lankford says, "It's interesting that a lot of the elements that are in this bill President Trump was looking for when he was president, that he said needs to be done."
