1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: President Trump's efforts to build a wall continue. The Department

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: of Homeland Security is getting bids from lots of companies

3
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:09,639
Speaker 1: that want to help build it. Trump administrations asking Congress

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,879
Speaker 1: for a billion dollars to spend on it this year. Now.

5
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: Senate Democrats want no part of this. They met with

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: Larrazza and promised that they'll make sure it doesn't happen.

7
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer told a Raza, Democrats will do whatever it

8
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: takes to stop the wall. Robert Menendez, New Jersey said

9
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: that Congress shouldn't pay a dime because, after all, Trump

10
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: claimed he'd make Mexico pay for it. Now, Larazza asked

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 1: Democrats to do whatever they had to, including shutting down

12
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: the government when a stop gap spending measure comes up

13
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: in April. Schumer didn't commit the Democrats to it, but

14
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: he said he hoped Republicans would not put the wall

15
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,599
Speaker 1: funding request in the spending measure. Well, it looks like

16
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: Schumer's hope is the Republican's command. Senator Roy Blunt, top

17
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 1: Republican Senate Committee on Appropriations, just said that they probably

18
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: won't include Trump's request to fund the wall until next year.

19
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: So the News Isn't that Chuck Schumer and the Democrats

20
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,119
Speaker 1: are pressured by Larazza News is that the Republicans are

21
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: afraid of a Democrat government shutdown because they think they'll

22
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: get blamed for it, even though the Democrats are responsible

23
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: for it and they're probably right.
