I thank my friend from Texas, he has been the consummate crusader on this issue. If not for him, this would even be more ignored in Washington, D.C., than it is already. I just think about a scant month ago--a month and a half ago or so--the President of the United States stood right there and talked about securing the border. It is unfathomable to me. We used to not say lie in the world of politics about your opponent or the other party, but I don't know what else that is other than a lie. I come from Pennsylvania, we are not on the border where Mr. Roy represents, where his communities and his State is being completely overrun. Pennsylvania is far from the border. We got Route 81. We got Route 83. The fentanyl comes up. The President took an oath to faithfully discharge the laws of this country, but just abrogating them. You just wonder who is he representing? Whose citizens is he representing because the people in my community, the people all across the country are dying at record levels from drugs coming across the southern border, and nothing is happening to stop it. It is not only people coming here illegally and taking your jobs--all these different languages that your school has to teach now. Somebody is going to pay for that. Who can afford this? Whose job is it to safeguard America? If it is not the President's job, whose job is it? Chip Roy is trying. Bob Good is trying. We can't keep Title 42 in place.…
