Political Quotes

“Earlier in this debate, the gentleman from Mississippi noted that there has been more fentanyl seized at our southern border than ever before, but what he did not recognize is that there are now more fentanyl deaths in this country than ever before, and that is a direct result of what is happening across our southern border. I rise today in support of the impeachment of Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. This is one of the most solemn and consequential actions the United States House of Representatives can take, and I do not take it lightly. However, under the watch of Secretary Mayorkas, we have witnessed the degradation of our border security and the willful and consistent refusal to comply with and enforce Federal immigration laws. Today, fentanyl is the leading cause of death for those aged 18 to 45, terrorists on the FBI watch list are being released into the interior of the country, and the cartels are a multibillion-dollar business. The crisis we face today is a threat to every single American, causing our communities to be less safe, and it is a direct result of Secretary Mayorkas' actions. A clear message must be sent to the executive branch that they no longer get to break the law without consequences. Secretary Mayorkas must be held accountable.”
