Mr. Chairman, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Chair, I thank my colleague for supporting my amendment. As we look at the jurisdictions across the country that may be ignoring current Federal law, whether by ordinance, whether by order of the mayor, by statute, or just an unwritten rule, this report would illuminate and bring to light those jurisdictions that, quite frankly, are putting America at risk. A border crisis is a disaster for the country. It has turned every State into a border State. It spurred drug trafficking, human trafficking, and other crime. There was just a bodega that was shut down that was trafficking illegals today. It has caused resource crises for cities and towns across the country who have found that they don't have the resources to deal with the influx, the mass influx, of people the Biden-Harris administration has released upon them. Again, this information is critical as we move forward, as we look for solutions and put an end to this crisis that is plaguing our country. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
