first time. secretary kelly has already made tremendous progress in fulfilling the president's promise to end illegal immigration and fully enforce the laws of the united states. and this bill reflects the president's strong commitment to ensuring that progress continues. also on the hill, of course, senate republicans this week continue to work toward our shared goal of saving the american people from the disaster of obamacare. earlier this afternoon, vice president pence and secretary of health and human services dr. tom price hosts representatives from several grassroots organizations, calling on the senate to take action on health care legislation. as the president has said, inaction is simply not an option. these groups want lawmakers to know that their members want them to follow through on their promise to the american people. finally, i'd like to read a statement from the president on the resignation of press secretary sean spicer. i am grateful for sean's work on behalf of my administration and the american people.
