I joined a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Attorney General Merrick Garland, questioning the administration’s dismissal of over 350,000 removal cases and highlighting the erosive effect of these policies on the U.S. legal immigration system.

The letter criticizes President Biden’s recent executive order purporting to close the border, as “too little, too late.” The administration’s action was also an admission that President Biden always had the authority to secure the border, despite his claims otherwise.

Under the Biden administration, the United States has seen the worst border crisis in its history. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) reported more than 7.8 million encounters with illegal immigrants at the southwest border over the last three years, and more than 9.5 million encounters nationwide. At the onset of the Biden administration, the president signed a series of executive orders rolling back former President Donald Trump's border security initiatives, leading to a spike in illegal border crossings.

The real tragedy is that had President Biden done nothing and just kept the Trump programs in place that secured the border, we wouldn’t have a border crisis.

This week, we also learned about eight suspected terrorists being arrested.There is no full vetting. This is just the tip of the iceberg of the clear and present danger created by the Democrats’ open border catastrophe.
