The solutions are not open border policy.

This committee continues the same type of political posturing and attacks toward this administration regarding the border crisis, while at the same time doing absolutely nothing to address the problem.

I've seen great, hardworking members of our CBP and others giving all they've got to do a job well.

And, look, we've got to address solutions, and the solutions are not open border policy.

Look, we can address problems if we're willing to get to the root of the issues and address them.

If the Democrats genuinely cared about the plight of migrants, of unaccompanied children, of sick immigrants and so forth, then let's come to the table and let's try to get solutions instead of the continued political posturing.

We are a compassionate country, and that goes for both sides of the aisle and the vast majority of people in this country.

I very much appreciate this Administration's efforts to drain the swamp, and to help push as much of the Federal workforce outside the DC Beltway.

And so I want to sincerely say thank you to each of our witnesses for your role and for you being a part of this hearing today.

this is certainly an area that we need to dig deeper into, and make sure that we are secure.

I believe we are majorly behind the eight ball at this point, and there are so many issues to deal with.

the powers of the Federal Government is only like 18 areas. Everything else is to be left to the states and to the people.
