Shutdown Scott Is Playing Politics With Our Border Security – AGAIN

Miami, FL – Early this morning, Rick Scott failed to vote on a bipartisan agreement to keep the government open and to fund the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees border security and immigration enforcement.

“Rick Scott talks a big game when it comes to securing our border, but when push comes to shove, the man did not even show up to vote to fund the Department of Homeland Security and pay our hardworking law enforcement,” said Debbie Mucarsel-Powell. “By refusing to fund the Department of Homeland Security, Rick Scott is playing politics with our border for his own self-interest. The crisis at the border is on him and his extremist allies. Rick Scott would rather risk Floridians’ security than come to the table to do his job – but Floridians remember every time he has risked our border and national security. When I am elected to the Senate, I will always put Floridians first.”
