Nancy Pelosi called for a yearlong continuing resolution on funding for homeland security.
She dismissed a compromise of exchanging border-wall funding for a DACA solution.
Pelosi, the likely next speaker of the House, called the construction of a border wall "immoral, ineffective, expensive."

WASHINGTON — Nancy Pelosi, who's set to become the next speaker of the House when the new Congress begins in January, shot down negotiations that would include funding for President Donald Trump's long-desired wall along the nearly 2,000-mile US-Mexico border.

Pelosi told reporters on Thursday that pairing wall funding with a permanent solution to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program was not on the table and that she would prefer Congress pass a continuing resolution for Homeland Security before Christmas.


"What we want in this negotiation, I can say, and it wouldn't be a surprise to anybody is we'd like to just go in and say it's December. We've lost now another week — for a legitimate purpose — but nonetheless, we're getting closer to when this CR expires," Pelosi said. ..................................


"[Trump] also promised Mexico would pay for it, so even if they did, it's immoral still and they're not going to pay for it," she said.
