Good afternoon.
President Biden didn't inherit the current chaos we see at the southern border—he created it.
Within his first hours in office, he halted construction of the border wall, and in the days that followed, issued numerous executive actions that invited an open border and lawlessness.
He suspended deportations, ended asylum agreements, instituted catch-and-release, granted mass parole, and even unveiled amnesty plans. The result has been the worst border crisis ever recorded in the United States.

Good afternoon.
President Biden has failed to enforce our immigration laws and secure our southern border. The crisis he created has unleashed devastating consequences across the nation. The White House continues to prioritize progressive ideology over public safety, and their policies allow dangerous criminals to illegally cross into the United States and freely roam our streets. Bad actors are emboldened knowing the U.S. government will do nothing to remove them from the country.
