## Transcript

I am very proud to announce today that we have reached a deal to end the shutdown and reopen the Federal government. [ APPLAUSE ] As everyone knows, I have a very powerful alternative, but I didn't want to use it at this time. Hopefully it will be unnecessary. I wanna thank all of the incredible federal workers and their amazing families who have shown extraordinary devotion in the face of this recent hardship. You are fantastic people. You are incredible patriots. Many of you have suffered far greater than anyone, but your families would know or understand, and not only did you not complain, but in many cases, you encouraged me to keep going because you care so much about our country and about its border security.

Again, I thank you. All Americans, I thank you. You are very, very special people. I am so proud that you are citizens of our country. When I say make America great again, it could never be done without you great people. In a short while, I will sign a bill to open our government for three weeks, until February 15th. I will make sure that all employees receive their back pay very quickly or as soon as possible. It'll happen fast. I am asking Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to put this proposal on the floor immediately. After thirty six days of spirited debate and dialog I have seen and heard from enough Democrats and Republicans that they are willing to put partisanship aside.

I think. And put the security Of the American people first, I do believe they're going to do that. They have said they are for complete border security and they have finally and fully acknowledged that having barriers, fencing, or walls, or whatever you wanna call it, will be an important part of the solution.
