BIDEN MUST ADDRESS OPEN BORDERS FOR TERRORISTS
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, American families are at
greater risk of mass murder terrorist attacks than ever before due to
the failing border policies of President Biden.
Intentionally opening the southern border, nearly 3 million illegal
aliens from over 160 countries have intruded since Biden took office.
American jobs are destroyed. Deadly drugs are smuggled by cartels,
leading to over 100,000 deaths last year, devastating American
families. Most gruesome is the imminent danger of known terrorists from
the Terrorist Screening Database crossing into America.
Last year, in Del Rio, Texas, officials would not reveal to me the
number of terrorists crossing. Now, we see the threat is real, with 50
terrorists just this year. These terrorists are skilled, well-financed,
fully equipped, and maniacally motivated mass murderers.
Open borders for terrorists must be addressed. Biden should now take
every action to protect American families.
In conclusion, God bless our troops who successfully protected
America for 20 years in the global war on terrorism, as it continues,
moving from the Afghanistan safe haven to America.
