On the recordFebruary 2, 2022
Absolutely. Then we learned yesterday that Border Patrol agents are completely demoralized; that they are not even capable of doing the job that they were hired to do, that our United States Government hired them to do because their authorities are not allowing them to do it. They are not able to deport illegal aliens so that our American people can have jobs. No. Our American people are having to compete with them. But even worse what we learned is about fentanyl. Fentanyl coming from China. That is what bothered me when I was listening today when the Democrats debated this bill with us. Only in this COMPETES Act bill it mentioned fentanyl only 10 times. Yet, it is Chinese fentanyl coming from Communist China that is killing young people. It is the number one cause of death with Americans age 18 to 45. That is a tragedy, but yet we have been controlled by COVID-19. Children in schools are forced to wear masks; people are told they have to take vaccines. It is totally out of control, but yet it is fentanyl from China. Here is something else. Maybe Mr. Perry can help me out with this since I am new here. Why doesn't the Joe Biden administration--why don't the Democrats care about doing something about fentanyl, a horrible poison coming in from China, but yet they care more about coral reefs?
