As my colleague Isabela Dias wrote earlier this year: The nation’s undocumented immigrants grow and harvest the food we eat, construct our homes, and care for our young and elderly.

  • The Latest: Time is running short to avert a government shutdown after funding bill is rejected
    Denver Post, Friday - 12/20/2024 - 08:25 AM

    By The Associated Press A day before a potential government shutdown, the House rejected President-elect Donald Trump’s new plan Thursday to fund operations and suspend the debt ceiling, as Democrats and dozens of Republicans refused to accommodate his sudden demands. Here’s the latest: Trump ally Steven Bannon says Speaker Johnson ‘is not up to the task’ As the speaker twisted Thursday in Washington, his peril was on display at Turning Point USA’s conservative AmericaFest confab, where Trump ally and 2016 campaign architect Steven Bannon stirred thousands with a takedown of the Louisiana Republican. “Clearly, Johnson is not up to the task.
