PERSONAL EXPLANATION

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 57 (Thursday, March 26, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 57 (Thursday, March 26, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Pages E273-E274] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] PERSONAL EXPLANATION ______ HON. GREG STANTON of arizona in the house of representatives Thursday, March 26, 2026 Mr. STANTON. Mr. Speaker, today, due to unforeseen circumstances, I missed Roll Call Vote No. 104, Pay Our Homeland Defenders Act. Had I been present, consistent with my three previous votes to oppose additional funding for the Department of Homeland Security, without the needed accountability measures for ICE, I would have voted NO. This is in addition to my vote against the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which included $75 billion in funding for ICE, and my leadership of the PUBLIC SAFETY Act to redirect this funding away from ICE and toward local law enforcement agencies that invest in well-trained officers with strong ties to the communities they serve.
