In the next few days, we are going to be asked to take another step on our journey to securing our border. The Congress has to take this very seriously because we have tens of thousands of people dying every year from drug overdoses with a lot of those drugs crossing our southern border. Just a few weeks ago we seized hundreds of pounds of fentanyl, a drug that can kill millions of people and, in fact, has taken tens of thousands of lives. We know our border is unsecured. We have to do whatever we can to give the President and the Department of Homeland Security the ability to protect our southern border. ____________________
