"Hey, I just left the floor of the House and put my signature on a discharge petition that would fund DHS, every department: TSA, FEMA, the Coast Guard, except ICE. ... Republicans could join Democrats, and sign this discharge petition, bring this bill to the floor so we can fund TSA agents, the rest of the Homeland Security ..."
Will support funding for TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard.
Occurrences
Evidence
The article says seven House Democrats broke ranks to support a $64.4 billion DHS funding bill. It notes that some supporters said the bill preserved funding for FEMA, the TSA, and the Coast Guard.
The June 9 House vote on the $70 billion DHS bill passed 214-212 and the report says no Democrats voted in favor.
Assessments
The available evidence does not show that Susie Lee personally voted for, sponsored, or otherwise materially advanced funding for TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard. One cited DHS funding vote had no Democratic support, and another article identifies seven supporting Democrats without naming Lee. Because the record here neither establishes delivery nor a clear failed attempt by Lee herself, the claim remains unresolved.
