Womack Statement on President Trump's Immigration Proposal
Washington,
January 19, 2019
Washington, DC – January 19, 2019….Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) today released the following statement on President Trump's bipartisan proposal to reopen the government, secure our border, and reform multiple aspects of our broken immigration system. “Today, President Trump outlined a commonsense and bipartisan proposal that reopens the government, strengthens border security, addresses the humanitarian crisis on the border, and creates opportunities to fully reform our broken immigration system. By incorporating the priorities of both sides, the Administration has put forth a workable solution that strikes a fair balance. Rejecting this compromise would be to show that political obstructionism is more important than governing. It’s time for my Democratic colleagues to come to the table and do what is right for our national security, federal workers, and all Americans.” Additional information on the President’s proposal can be found here. Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) has represented Arkansas’s Third Congressional District since 2011. He serves as the Ranking Member of the House Committee on the Budget and is a member of the House Appropriations Committee.
