A $4.5 billion migrant aid bill is making a Democratic House divided against itself.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi supports the bill while more liberal and very vocal House Democrats are opposing it, The New York Times reported Monday.
At the request of Democrats, I have delayed the Illegal Immigration Removal Process for two weeks to see if the Democrats and Republicans can get together and work out a solution to the Asylum and Loophole problems at the Southern Border.
Pelosi thanked Trump for compromising and continued to call for the passage of the emergency aid bill, insisting the money will be used for humanitarian purposes and "Does not fund the administration's failed mass detention policy."
The progressive wing of the House Democrats aren't supporting the move, with its more prominent representatives saying recently that any money allocated to Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the U.S. Customs and Border Protection will be used for the "Killing" of children.
"We all want to address the problems at the border, but we don't know that there are enough sticks in this bill to make sure that the Trump administration actually spends the money the way they're supposed to," said Jayapal, co-chairwoman of the Progressive Caucus.
"He's creating these crises and then trying to point a finger at Democrats to give him more money, which he then uses for his own purposes."
