I’ve been in Washington all weekend - why hasn’t Congress been in session? We don’t need another week of show votes before flying out again... we need to #DoOurJob
How do we fix our broken immigration system? I am glad you asked. Read my op-ed here in @Federalist that came out last week. Let’s #SecureTheBorderNow, end this shutdown, and pay our workers. https://t.co/gT8KgvL9rx
