Mr. Speaker, I thank Mr. Good for his remarks. It is a pleasure to hear from him and have him participate. After everything we have heard tonight, it is no wonder that Kamala Harris has been working hard to distance herself from her role as the border czar. Under her watch, more than 10 million illegal aliens have crossed our border, 350 terrorists have been stopped at the border, of which 100 of those were released into the country. That is just who we know about. Since 2021, more than 200,000 Americans have died from fentanyl overdoses, and enough fentanyl has come into the country to kill 458 million people, more than enough to kill every American alive. More than 300,000 children have been misplaced under the border czar's watch. In fact, she can't even tell you, Mr. Speaker, exactly how many are missing. She has no idea where they are. All we know is that sometimes you had an individual sponsor receive as many as 40, 50, or 60 unaccompanied young children whom we don't know now where they are, and we don't vet the sponsors anyway. Now, Kamala Harris wants us to believe that she would be tough on the border and that she would solve the crisis. Why would anyone believe her? What would she do differently than when she was second in command of the executive branch and designated the border czar? The reality is she wouldn't do anything differently. We know this not only from her record as the border czar but also from the policies she has supported throughout her career.…
