I thank my good friend, the vice chair of our Conference, for his leadership on these important issues. Mr. Speaker, Mark Twain once said: Loyalty to the country always.

The whole country now knows that we, the United States of America, are allowing a record number of potential threats into our country at our southern border, including deadly drugs, terrorists, human trafficking, and crime. On top of the nearly 10 million persons here illegally who have crossed the border under Joe Biden's watch, 361 individuals were on the terrorist watch list.
