Today, the New Democrat Coalition released Episode 14 of Season 2 of The Fly-In, hosted by Rep. Greg Landsman (OH-01) and Marc Veasey (TX-33).
This week, Landsman and Veasey are joined by Congressman Mike Levin (CA-49) to discuss Republicans’ legislation to give an additional $70 billion to ICE and CBP without any of the common-sense reforms Americans overwhelmingly support. Rep. Levin also talks about his recent visit to a detention center in San Diego, sharing some of the difficulties that Members of Congress face when trying to inspect facilities and speak with detainees.
Importantly, this Republican bill does nothing to prevent President Trump’s $1.8 billion slush fund and $1 billion taxpayer subsidy for his ballroom. As co-founder of the recently-formed End Corruption Caucus, Rep. Levin speaks on the blatant levels of corruption coming out of this administration, and what Congress needs to do to address it.
In honor of the Congressional Baseball Game this week, Landsman and Veasey wrap up the show by asking Rep. Levin about early-morning team practices and quizzing him on his baseball knowledge.
