Today, Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-03) voted against H.J.Res. 46, a misguided resolution to terminate President Donald Trump’s national emergency declaration and obstruct his statutory authority. Congressman Luetkemeyer released the following statement:

“Knowing full well this resolution has no chance of being signed into law, today my Democratic colleagues advanced another futile attempt to obstruct the President’s statutory authority and overturn his national emergency declaration,” said Congressman Luetkemeyer. “America is facing a crisis at the border and instead of working to protect those who elected us, my colleagues have decided to waste time on a purely political resolution. The President is committed to keeping American citizens safe and I wholeheartedly support his efforts to secure our nation.”
