Crisis after crisis after crisis. We now know that over 2.1 million people have illegally entered this country this year. That is 1.7 million who have been apprehended, the highest number ever on record. And 400,000 additional gotaways that the administration is now owning up to; yet we know nothing about them, we know nothing about their intent for this country, we know nothing about what they are doing. And more fentanyl has been seized by CBP at our southern border to kill seven times over every single American. Even as migrant caravans with thousands of migrants march toward our border, this administration continues to mislead and deny that we have a crisis. I am extremely concerned about who is facilitating these caravans and what organizations are involved in the drug and human trafficking along the way. The blame for this crisis falls squarely on the Biden administration and his open-border policies. Biden has abandoned Texans, and this administration's blatant disregard and incompetence for border security is endangering every single American. Let me again say that the President is abandoning not just Texans, but every American. This administration needs to get back to work, and I urge the Democrats to come to the table. ____________________

Mr. Speaker, I rise today not just as a Member of Congress but as a wingman, a servicemember, and a friend to those in uniform and in strong support of S. 201, the Aviator Cancers Examination Study Act, or the ACES Act. Far too many of our…
