BORDER/CONGRESS/IMMIGRATION/MEDIA/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Reps.-elect Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) and Joe Neguse (D-Colo.) are already going head-to-head over President Donald Trump’s decision to send troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, giving a preview of how a new class of lawmakers will grapple over the issue next year. During a panel discussion CBS was to air Sunday [11-18-18] on ‘Face the Nation,’ Crenshaw said the administration was responding to a migrant caravan heading toward the border in ‘a very humane way’…Neguse, the son of Eritrean refugees, said the deployment of more than 5,000 troops was the wrong approach…Also during the panel discussion, led by Margaret Brennan, Neguse and incoming House Democrats Deb Haaland (D-N.M.) and Chrissy Houlahan (D-Pa.) said they would not vote for any kind of immigration overhaul legislation that includes funding for a border wall.”
