“You’ve got to use the power of the purse. That’s what you have to use.'
On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” Rep. Chip Roy said that unless Congress starts using the power of the purse and says “we’re not going to give blank checks to this government” unless they “turn away and detain, as the current law requires” then the border won’t be fixed, regardless of how many hearings there are or whether DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is impeached.
Roy stated, [relevant remarks begin around 1:30] “You’ve got to use the power of the purse. That’s what you have to use. Look, the fact of the matter is, the founders gave us that for a reason to check an out-of-control executive branch. So, we need to say that we’re not going to give blank checks to this government unless we actually say that we’re going to turn away and detain, as the current law requires. But unless our leadership demands that, we won’t get any change.
