Of course we need legislation. We need legislation that works. H.R. 2 would work.

The Public Record
Thomas Miller McClintock is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for California's 5th congressional district since 2009. A member of the Republican Party, he has been an advocate for limited government and fiscal conservatism throughout his political career.

He previously served in the California State Assembly and as a member of the California State Senate, where he gained recognition for his commitment to conservative principles.
In 2007, when he was running for President, then Senator Joe Biden appeared in Winterset, Iowa, and he talked about the importance of the wall.
The wall is absolutely essential. That the Remain in the Mexico policy was working very well, and it all came to a halt on Inauguration Day.
I think Congress could authorize the States to enforce immigration under their congressional powers.
The Nation that will not enforce its immigration laws has no immigration laws.
The courts could do that and--but that still is the province of the courts, not of the Congress.
Immigration law is an enumerated power of the Congress. That should be indisputable.
Its effect is now being felt across the country. Its impact on our schools, our hospitals, our social safety net, law enforcement, public safety, and national security is absolutely catastrophic.
It's going to be solved by the American people electing an administration that's actually dedicated to enforcing our laws.
The very day he took office, Joe Biden issued Executive Orders that opened our borders to the world and began the largest illegal mass migration in recorded history.
