Congresswoman Debbie Lesko (AZ-08) released the following statement on President Trump’s proposal to secure the border and reopen the government.

“President Trump has offered a common sense plan that will address the humanitarian and security crisis currently happening at our Southern border plus ensure legal protection for the Dreamers who through no fault of their own were brought here illegally by their parents as a child. I sincerely hope that the Democrats will now finally come to the negotiating table to end this government shutdown and get federal government employees back to work with pay.”
