President Trump and Republicans want the government reopened immediately.

Federal workers are missing paychecks, flights are being delayed and canceled, and our economy may be hurting because the Democrats want the government to stay shut down.

They are completely reckless.

California has spent billions of taxpayer dollars to combat its homelessness crisis with very little to show for it. Six months ago, I announced the Homelessness Fraud and Corruption Task Force. Today, we begin to hold people accountable by announcing two cases where more than $50 million of homelessness funding was fraudulently obtain.
 
Federal agents this morning arrested Cody Holmes, the former CFO of Shangri-La Industries, and a grand jury yesterday indicted real estate developer Steven Taylor, both of whom are charged with fraud in separate cases. Holmes allegedly siphoned public funds for homelessness and used millions of dollars for his own use. Taylor is accused of lying to banks to fraudulently obtain loans, including a Cheviot Hills property he flipped and sold to a homeless housing developer for more than double the original purchase price.
 
Today’s developments are an important first step in holding public officials and companies involved in combatting homelessness responsible. Our investigations are ongoing.

Every day, Democrat lawmakers attack the men and women of law enforcement and now they have shut down the government, putting our officers and their families at financial risk. President Trump and I will always stand by law enforcement, and today we are keeping our promise to always support them by making sure they are paid during the Democrats’ shutdown. 

More than 70,000 sworn law enforcement officers across DHS including those serving in CBP, ICE, Secret Service, TSA and other critical mission areas will be paid for all hours worked during the shutdown period.

By Wednesday, October 22, law enforcement officers will receive a “super check” –which covers the 4 days lost, their overtime, and their next pay period.

DHS remains deeply grateful to our law enforcement for their continued professionalism, vigilance, and service under challenging circumstances.
