                   BORDER CRISIS HAS NO END IN SIGHT

  (Mr. NEHLS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. NEHLS. Mr. Speaker, it has been 57 days since Vice President 
Kamala Harris was named the point person on the border. She still has 
not visited.
  The entire Biden administration continues to distract from, deny, and 
downplay this public health, humanitarian, and national security 
crisis.
  Apprehensions in the month of April are up more than 100,000, higher 
than they were in January of this year. This has been ongoing for 
months, and the administration still has no plan.
  The Biden border crisis is costing American lives and billions in 
taxpayer dollars and is once again placing the responsibility of the 
Federal Government on individual States.
  When is enough enough? When will the Biden administration stop 
allowing criminal cartels to reap billions in profits from their 
inaction? When will the Biden administration stop failing to fulfill 
their constitutional mandate to keep the American people safe? It is 
anyone's best guess.
  But with Democrats controlling the House, the Senate, and the White 
House, the Biden border crisis has no end in sight.
