                EXECUTIVE ORDERS COMPROMISE OUR SECURITY

  (Mr. ARRINGTON asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. ARRINGTON. Madam Speaker, the first and most important job of the 
Federal Government is protecting its citizens. From day one, President 
Biden, who campaigned as the unifier in chief, has made record 
unilateral decisions to compromise the security of our country and 
undermine the rights of the American people.

[[Page H337]]

  In his flood of executive orders, President Biden has already stopped 
deportation, lifted travel restrictions from terrorist countries, 
halted border wall construction, empowered sanctuary cities, weakened 
asylum policies--I am running out of breath, Madam Speaker.
  I welcome all freedom-loving and law-abiding citizens who want to 
make a better life for themselves in this country, but we must respect 
the sovereignty of this country, we must respect the rule of law, and 
we must always respect the American people's safety first.
