Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 5, 2022
It has been reported that a near-record number of migrants are flocking to our southern border as the title 42 remain in Mexico policy is set to expire. Initial reports show that over 70,000 immigrants evaded apprehension just in the past month, the highest on record, according to preliminary data. This surge in crossings is bringing a national security and humanitarian crisis to our border, even as the Biden administration refuses to provide additional funding to our Customs and Border Patrol agents. Without that funding, without the tools, without the training and equipment our Border Patrol needs, our safety and security are at risk. President Biden has never stepped foot at the southern border, and he has worsened and ignored our historic border crisis at each and every turn. Now is not the time to end title 42. Now is not the time to leave our ports of entry vulnerable. And now is not the time to play political games with our national security. Our borders are at risk, and the sovereignty of our country is maintained only with protecting our borders. ____________________
