Rep. Katie Hill: ‘Our Biggest Priority Is Getting the Government Back Open’

‘And we’re willing to come to the table after that and talk about what the right solutions’

EXCERPT:

HILL: “We are at a place where at this point our biggest priority is getting the government back open. And we’re willing to come to the table after that and talk about what the right solutions are around border security and around immigration reform. The reality is that Democrats have for decades been in favor of border security. Exactly what that looks like is what the debate should be around and we know that it’s not a 2,000-mile long concrete wall. President Trump and his allies have stopped calling it that. They’ve given up on that whole idea because they know how impossible it is. But we -- we do need to -- to have those talks and the first thing needs to be getting federal employees back to work.”
