RETURN TO TRUMP BORDER POLICIES
(Mr. LANGWORTHY asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. LANGWORTHY. Mr. Speaker, the chaos at our borders today is caused
by President Biden unilaterally ending the effective policies of
President Trump. It was his first act in office, and it has cost our
Nation dearly.
Now, we face a crisis. Our cities and States are overwhelmed by
millions of illegal immigrants, who are costing taxpayers billions
while American citizens are pushed to the back of the line.
Deadly fentanyl is flowing through unchecked, along with violent gang
members and terrorists on the FBI's watch list. We witnessed the
horrific murder of Laken Riley and the shooting of two NYPD officers.
Yet, the President has done nothing.
This is how we end the chaos: One, we must restore the remain in
Mexico policy. Two, we end catch and release. Three, we enforce the
laws on the books. Four, on top of that, the millions who have entered
illegally must be deported to restore order and security.
President Trump's policies worked, and we must return to them. This
is not about politics. It is about the safety and sovereignty of our
great Nation.
