What we want to do is get down to the facts and make sure we know what is going on at the border.

I am confident there are a lot of people moving into the hemisphere, mostly headed this way.

If we doubled the number of blue uniforms at those ports or entry, we would catch double the amount.

Today we have confirmed it, a greater number of individuals moving throughout the world displaced.

Let's make sure, like my sheriff says, that we go after the criminal element as well.

I wish he would be here. About guns in Mexico. I don't make Mexican laws. I am a U.S. lawmaker.

I want to make sure, if there are people who are supposed to be picked up after they rape in our communities, that they are taken care of appropriately.

I agree with you. In my district, not a week goes by that I don't hear about a death, a young person overdosing on fentanyl.

Those are the people I don't want in my community.

I just want to say that back home I like to think in my district, other parts, that we take care of our men and women in uniform.

Thank you for the opportunity to testify today during police week about the work Chicago CRED is doing in Chicago to reduce gun violence.
