Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 2, 2023
Last month, there were 269,735 attempted border crossings by illegal immigrants. The numbers don't lie. Joe Biden's open border policies have unleashed a crisis, making every State a border State. I have been to our border and spoken to the agents on the ground who are currently working tirelessly to handle the humanitarian crisis and the national security crisis that continues to occur each day. It is time for the Senate to pass the Secure the Border Act, which would force the Biden administration to restart construction of the border wall, increase the number of Border Patrol agents, end catch and release, and finally deploy the new technologies that our Border Patrol agents have requested in order to help secure our border. Our communities cannot afford to wait any longer. It is time to fund our Border Patrol and ensure that our agents have the tools and the resources they need to stop the flow of illegal immigrants and the individuals who cross our border from the terrorist watch list. They are entering our Nation each and every day. ____________________
