Monica De La Cruz (TX-15), who represents a South Texas district that includes a portion of the border, spoke about how the border crisis is both unsafe for migrants and American citizens.

Rep. Jen Kiggans (VA-02) is determined to ensure that troops continue receiving their paychecks should the government shut down, and she has introduced bipartisan legislation to do just that.
