It’s been over a month since the government shut down amid a spending fight. At the center is a border wall.
Republicans see the wall as the only solution to fix immigration and send those protected under asylum and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals back to their country once protection expires.
Democrats want a path to citizenship for these recipients. These people have fled hardship or economic distress in search of a better life. They deserve to be allowed to stay.
Trump, who will not sign anything unless his wall gets funded, is keeping federal workers hostage. They have already missed one paycheck and may miss more until the government opens. This is uncalled for and not okay.
I encourage all of you to call or email your representative and senators and tell them to demand the government open up.
