It’s now headed to the Senate.
Meanwhile, the House Freedom Caucus is sending a letter to Trump, begging him to reject this swamp monster.
Members of the @freedomcaucus sent the below letter to the WH:
"Mr. President, we urge you to remember the countless forgotten men and women of America who placed their faith in you to change business as usual in Washington, D.C. We urge you to join us and reject this omnibus." pic.twitter.com/eO0B1PfCYl

Here’s the letter:
For those wondering, House Speaker Paul Ryan isn’t worried. He basically said that this only provides funding for the next 6 months ($1.3 trillion in 6 months– is that suppose to make us feel better?), so the rest of the wall money WILL COME.
Spending bill includes $1.6 billion for the border wall and $4.7 billion for the drug war. House @SpeakerRyan speaks out on @foxandfriends pic.twitter.com/aAyGj8SyxS

I’m purely speaking for myself right here, but I’m with the House Freedom Caucus on this one. But the truth? Trump will likely sign this behemoth.
