                  BORDER CRISIS JEOPARDIZES AMERICANS

  (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, President Biden and far-
left Democrats continue to jeopardize the safety of American families 
and national security with open borders.
  Mr. Biden's failure has allowed over 9 million illegal aliens to 
cross our borders, including more than 300 on the terrorist watch list. 
Due to Mr. Biden's irresponsibility, all families are at risk, as 
evidenced by the brutal murder of nursing student Laken Riley of 
Georgia.

  House Republicans continue to work to protect Americans and 
strengthen our borders, including passage of the Secure the Border Act 
to reinforce border security and impeaching Department of Homeland 
Security Secretary Mayorkas, who shamefully put every American family 
at risk of murderous attack.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops who successfully protected 
America for 20 years as the global war on terrorism moves from the 
Afghanistan safe haven to America. We don't need new border laws; we 
need to enforce the laws we have. Biden shamefully opens borders for 
dictators, as more 9/11 attacks across America are imminent, as 
repeatedly warned by the FBI.
