Their remarks come as the redistricting battle heats up across the country for both parties — and in light of recent primary losses for Republicans who have spoken out against the Trump administration.

Their GOP colleagues are also racing to pass a budget reconciliation package to fund immigration enforcement agencies — a move to circumvent Democrats who previously held up funding for the Department of Homeland Security over tactics used by federal agents to carry out President Trump s massive deportation agenda.

The press conference is scheduled to begin at 1:30 p.m. EDT.
