The budget deal to keep the government funded through September agreed upon by congressional leaders would continue funding the refugee resettlement program.
An agreement on the omnibus budget was reached by leaders from both parties Sunday, as a government shutdown looms on Friday. The proposed spending agreement includes no money to construct the president’s border wall, and continues funding Planned Parenthood.

The bill would include a total of $3 billion towards migration and refugee assistance, which is roughly the same that was spent in Fiscal Year 2016. It would also include $50 million towards the emergency refugee and migration assistance fund, which is also the same amount spent in the previous fiscal year.
With President Trump’s executive orders temporarily blocking refugee resettlement held up in court, 12,397 refugees have been resettled during his presidency.***……..
The Obama administration set a goal in September of 110,000 refugees admitted in Fiscal Year 2017. A State Department official told The Daily Caller in early April that “this language represents a ceiling on refugee admissions – it is not a mandatory target.”

So says the newbie, here to demoralize.
They don’t call it the Surrender Party for nothing. Look at all the “patriots” giving up after 100 days of the Trump admin. Is it a wonder conservatives never win?
Much more that this damn thing did and didn’t do! Hearing some pubbie folks on the telly saying they’re not supporting it.
Trump has options-——I doubt if he’ll pass this by.
Because Paulie Ossoff likes leading the democrat party
None dare call it treason
I wish Trump would just veto this crap
HAHA, Its either ‘3D chess’ or it's ‘Trump's been rolled’.
Either way we are supposed to blame Ryan, not Trump.
But how many years and budgets he signs for?
The question becomes: “How many people do you want living in the USA?”
Is 300 million too many?
Is 500 million too many?
Is a billion too many?
For those people who benefit from an increasing population, there is no upper limit.
Thanks for posting. Garrison is fantastic.
TRUMP NEEDS TO APPOINT GINGRICH AS PAUL RYAN BABYSITTER
“Trump has been rolled by the Republican leadership or Trump is a two-faced lying POS. WHICH IS IT?”
Given that we all pretty much agree that GOP leadership is packed with feckless cowardly inept quislings, the answer to your question is pretty clear. If he signs a budget bill that contains nothing with which the Dems could quarrel, you have your confirmtion.
Yeah, pretty sure he works for Chuck Schumer.
...refuse provide $1 billion to build the wall to prevent terrorists sneeking in the back door, yet they provide $3 billion to bring them in the front door and to feed and house them.

Perfect description. I am adding that to the comments I am preparing for when I call my Representative today. Thank you.
Liz, help! Please tell me the name and number of this bill. I am putting together my remarks for when I call my Rep. I went to the house.gov site, but I can’t find the bill.
I will post my remarks here for others to copy after I have composed them.
Is it H.J. Res. 99?
OK. That’s the way they want it. I’m finished voting Republican. f*ck em.
Trump needs to hand pick a bunch of people to run against democrats... then two years down the road he needs to hand pick groups to run against idiot Republicans.
There's that. Then there's the private meeting with Planned Parenthood that didn't stay secret. Then there's her kids singing to the Chinese premier, her brand getting the OK in China, and now they aren't a currency manipulator. And no tariffs on imports from Mexico that would pay for the wall?
I'm not liking this. I hoped Trump would be sitting down and negotiating with the likes of the North Korean minister and Assad simultaneously with rebuilding our military. We didn't expect him to shift focus away from the ONLY priority for now....disintegrating ISIS.
I'm getting a lot of pushback from the "don't worry, be happy, what do you know about 3D Chess" crowd on FR. But I'll keep saying this: One major issue that affected voters thought-making process throughout the process was a disdain for political dynasties, for this election the Bushes and Clinton. Electing Trump was a repudiation of that aspect of the swamp. Bringing Jared and Ivanka into the Aquarium, and as shameless swamp things no less, is an unforced error. You better believe a "Trump Dynasty" issue will be used against them! And Ivanka? It's shameless and in the open that libs are using her to set daddy's agenda. Is she too stupid, too arrogant, or doesn't she care that she's being used by the nation-destroying globalist liberal elites?
(End of this rant. But I not going to stop expressing my unease. Perhaps the only thing that will bring Trump back to the Deplorable agenda is when support from us slips)
I am continuing to vote R at the state level. This is so an Art V will be our favor.
1. SHUT DOWN REFUGEE PROGRAM 2. FUND THE BORDERWALL..3 SSHUT DOWN PLANNED PARENTHOOD..4 REPEAL AND REPLACE OBAMACARE.....5
