Political Quotes

“Jaddou previously pushed other amnesty policies in her role as USCIS during the Obama administration. Specifically, she aggressively tried to expand parole in place in order to bypass Congress and implement mass amnesty. Jaddou has also defended the unconstitutional Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, falsely claiming this is a permissible exercise of discretion by the Secretary of Homeland Security. As an attorney, she should know only Congress has the authority to authorize this type of program. With that, Obama and DHS should have never unilaterally created this amnesty program. Jaddou in her current role is literally enabling and supporting the Biden border crisis. In August alone, there were 232,972 illegal immigrants encountered at the southern border. Customs and Border Patrol has seized 25,500 pounds of fentanyl so far in fiscal year 2023. Of course, that is only what has been seized, not what we know is coming into our country illegally and killing Americans, at least 300 a day. Biden's bureaucrats like Jaddou are literally allowing deadly fentanyl to easily flow into our communities and kill our children. My amendment is supported by the National Immigration Center for Enforcement, NumbersUSA, and the American Accountability Foundation. I urge my colleagues to support my amendment and hold Ms. Jaddou accountable for her blatant disrespect for the law of our Nation. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.”
