AMERICANS FIRST!

Project Firewall is the MOST AGGRESSIVE H-1B enforcement initiative in years—and it’s going to make sure American Jobs go to American Workers.

For decades, American Workers have been forced to train their foreign worker replacements—all because companies abused the H-1B program.

Enough is enough.

Under President Trump’s leadership, Project Firewall is bringing this to an end and ensuring Americans come FIRST.

Every day the shutdown continues, 320 small businesses can’t access an estimated $170 million in SBA-backed loans - choking off vital capital that allows them to hire, invest, and expand.

Funding for America‘s small businesses should come before funding for illegal aliens.

The Democrats’ must end their imprudent shutdown. Justice cannot be put under siege. Justice cannot be starved out. We will continue to protect the homeland.

It is our duty, our honor, and our privilege.

Now is not the time to hold the American economy hostage.

President Trump was elected to restore common sense and expand secure, reliable, and affordable energy.

Congressional Democrats obstructing the government from opening shows they prioritize everything but the will of the American people.

Democrats have spent years slamming shutdowns, but now they're pushing a reckless $1.5T spending spree, including healthcare for illegal aliens. Keeping the government shut down only hurts hardworking Americans.

Tell Congress to STOP the Democrat-led shutdown.

It’s incredibly disappointing that the Democrats are holding our government hostage to appease their radical base.

They need to stop their obstructionist games and let us get back to work for the American People.

You may have seen photos of the picket signs those workers carried — a simple but powerful message that could not be denied: I AM A MAN. Today the sanitation workers have a place in our Labor Hall of Honor: www.dol.gov/general/abou...
