Senate oversight, Coons-style.
WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.), a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, secured funding for Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the nation’s fire services, and the U.S. Coast Guard in the Homeland Security appropriations bill, which passed the Senate Appropriations Committee today with bipartisan support.
“Securing America’s borders and keeping our communities safe is a never-ending task,” said Senator Coons.“I’m particularly proud to have secured critical funding for Fire and SAFER grants as well as the U.S. Coast Guard in this legislation. Congress must ensure that the Department of Homeland Security has the tools it needs to respond to the evolving threats, and this bipartisan bill does just that.”
Trump’s Goon Squads didn’t suddenly appear as if by magic. They couldn’t exist without Coons’ incurious, obsequious bipartisanship.
