One year ago, House Republicans united to pass landmark border security legislation. Then Chuck Schumer and his fellow radical open-border Democrats in the Senate killed the bill.
To mark the one-year anniversary, Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform, and I coauthored an op-ed in The Federalist with a simple message: we MUST pass an actual national border security policy for a sovereign nation.
Since Biden took office in January 2021, 7.8 million illegal aliens have been encountered at the southern border — more than the populations of 36 states.
The magnitude of the damage cannot be overstated, Fellow Conservative.
Border patrol encounters over 10,000 illegal immigrants every day. More than 4.6 million of these illegal aliens have been released into the interior of our country.
This could have been prevented if Senate Democrats didn't kill our border security bill last year.
If lawless open-border Senate Democrats refuse to pass our bill, then House Republicans MUST leveragespending, Ukraine funding, or any other issue we can to force this bill passage.
