Democratic representatives have criticized Republicans for prioritizing political gains over effective border security solutions. According to Rep. Daniel Goldman and others, Republicans have rejected bipartisan efforts, including a Senate bill aimed at reforming the asylum system and enhancing community safety, to focus on creating electoral advantages. This stance is seen as a strategy to maintain political relevance by exploiting border issues rather than addressing them. Trump allegedly sabotaged a deal, and the focus on a 'bs impeachment' is seen as a distraction.
Republicans only see the border as a campaign issue. They don't want to solve the problem. They could have worked with us to pass the bipartisan border security bill. Instead they wasted time on this bs impeachment, which doesn't solve the problem - just keeps it in the news.
Republicans don't want solutions. They voted against border security funding. They want theatrics and political games. https://t.co/P3dkTTvDWt
House Republicans know that the bipartisan Senate bill would address many problems on our southern border. That's why they don't support it. They want a crisis to distract from their own legislative failures and the dumpster fire candidacy of Donald Trump. https://t.co/2YGgIcSTyR
If Republicans were serious about governing, they would have worked with Democrats to pass our bipartisan border security deal that would have reformed our broken asylum system and made major investments toward creating safer communities. Instead, they chose politics over people.
Republicans don't want to solve any of the problems at the border. They want more chaos and a political wedge issue for an election year. https://t.co/9Zipw82kwe
Rep. @danielsgoldman: We're talking about solving the border. Unfortunately, the Republicans have put politics over border security. They want chaos in order to win an election rather than solve the problems. You don’t have to take my word for it, Trump said he sabotaged the deal https://t.co/gPRjMBwIFB
