“The amendment before us is pretty simple. It prohibits funding from this Act to carry out the Department of Homeland Security's memo titled ``Guidelines for Enforcement Actions in or Near Protected Areas.'' The Biden administration issued a memo prohibiting ICE from arresting illegal migrants in most public places. If you look at a map, there are literally circles drawn that pretty much cover an entire geographic region. Effectively, they are making it impossible for ICE to do its job. It is purposeful, and this amendment is pretty simple: Don't use money to do this stupid thing. Madam Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.”
