Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem warned that failure to fund the Department of Homeland Security would weaken America’s safety and send the wrong message globally. Speaking amid a heated budget standoff, Noem argued that withholding DHS funding suggests Democrats do not prioritize protecting U.S. borders and national security. <br /> <br />She framed the funding debate as a direct choice between strengthening enforcement and leaving vulnerabilities exposed, urging Congress to pass the measure without delay. Democrats, however, say their concerns focus on oversight and policy reforms rather than opposing security itself, setting up another sharp partisan clash over immigration and homeland protection. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />#KristiNoem #DHS #Democrats #HomelandSecurity #Congress #BorderSecurity #USPolitics #FundingDebate #Immigration #NationalSecurity #Democrats #Republicans #BudgetBattle #America #Policy #BreakingNews #Washington #GovernmentFunding #Oversight #Safety #Politics<br /><br />~PR.498~HT.408~ED.532~GR.508~
