              PROTECT OUR COUNTRY BY SECURING OUR BORDERS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from 
Illinois (Mrs. Miller) for 5 minutes.
  Mrs. MILLER of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, the Federal Government's 
primary role is to protect the country by securing our borders.
  The Biden administration has allowed, even facilitated, an invasion 
of more than 8 million foreign nationals led by drug cartels, 
terrorists, and human traffickers.
  Joe Biden has created a fentanyl crisis, a national security crisis, 
and a child trafficking disaster, making the U.S. vulnerable in every 
way. In addition, this invasion costs taxpayers billions of dollars 
every year.
  Cartels are bringing unaccompanied minors across the border, and 
these taxpayer dollars are being used to fly unaccompanied children 
across the country on secret flights.
  Secretary Mayorkas has lost track of 85,000 children, and he must be 
held accountable through impeachment.
  Americans miss President Trump. He made border security his top 
priority. In Congress, I will always defend children and fight for 
strong borders.
