PRESIDENT BIDEN ENDANGERS FAMILIES
(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. Mr. Speaker, on Monday, the Supreme
Court issued a hold to keep the Title 42 border control policy alive.
This follows litigation by 19 States, along with a warning by the
Border Patrol officials, of a doubling of illegal aliens crossing the
border.
Implemented in 2020 by President Donald Trump, and was set to expire
today, the pandemic-era program is a critical tool used to quickly
expel illegal aliens. Since Biden took office, over 4 million illegal
aliens have been caught crossing the border, including 230,000 in
October.
The Biden administration is intentionally promoting the deadly drugs
by cartels, the child human trafficking into our country, and
terrorists crossing over into American society putting every family at
risk of mass murder.
The newly elected House Republican majority will work to secure the
border to protect families.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected
America for 20 years, as the global war on terrorism continues moving
from the Afghanistan safe haven to America.
Welcome President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine to Washington.
During my visit to Kiev last week, I saw firsthand the resolve of
Ukraine. Ukraine will achieve victory.
