“As Biden's border crisis continues to cost American taxpayers billions per year, I rise today to introduce my first bill, the Border Security Investment Act. This legislation will target the millions of immigrants who entered our country illegally, use American resources, don't pay taxes, and then proceed to send money back to foreign countries. More specifically, it would place a 37 percent user-based transaction fee on remittance transfers made through money service businesses where the remittance originates in the U.S. and is sent back to one of the top five nations of origin for illegal immigration. Revenue collected is placed under two trusts; both for border security. In the first trust the funds will be used by the Federal Government specifically for salaries and wages for Customs and Border Protection, physical barriers, and detection technology only. The second trust is allocated to reimburse States for their expenditures for border security enforcement measures. Any unspent money under this legislation from these two funds exceeding $50 billion is allocated to the Treasury solely for the purpose of reducing national debt. While there is still plenty of work to be done, this bill is a first step in securing our border, keeping our communities safe, and working toward a balanced budget. ____________________”
