But the people I represent they\u2019re like, good Lord shut down the border or shut down the government until you wake up President Biden and Mayorkas to do their job,\u201d he continued.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Roy suggested last week that conservative lawmakers\u00a0need to withhold funding\u00a0to force the Biden administration to agree to the GOP\u2019s border demands. Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) attempted\u00a0to walk back concerns\u00a0of a shutdown over the weekend, saying that Roy was not threatening to shut down the government in his remarks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Roy also said Monday Texas has had to take matters into its own hands regarding the border to \u201cdefend\u201d itself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had to spend out of our own money to do what the federal government is supposed to do,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd it\u2019s long past due for us to do something about it. It\u2019s why I don\u2019t think we should be funding the government without getting change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some conservative lawmakers have already\u00a0threatened to shut down\u00a0the government over the border. Roy circulated a \u201cDear Colleague\u201d letter last week urging lawmakers to hold up government funding legislation until Democrats and the White House agree to border security and asylum reforms included in H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act, which was passed in May by the House.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe must make funding for federal government operations contingent on the president signing H.R. 2, or its functional equivalent, into law and stopping the flow across our border (with demonstrable near-zero results),\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Media<\/a> Inc.
