BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL IMPACT ON BORDER SECURITY
(Mr. ROSE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. ROSE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today on behalf of the Tennesseans I
represent who overwhelmingly support President Trump's One Big
Beautiful Bill Act. The bill delivers for the American people in many
ways, not the least of which is border security.
Under the last administration, 1,504 Iranians were caught crossing
the border illegally. Nearly half of them were released into the
country. We still don't know how many of them were on the terrorist
watch list. Let's think about that.
Last month, zero illegal immigrants were released into the U.S.,
compared to 62,000 a year ago in May.
Indeed, President Trump secured the border in record time, a master
class in leadership, without a blank check from Congress.
Now, it is on the Senate to pass the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and
give the President the resources he needs to keep the border secure.
The bill will

fund more boots on the ground, more deportations, and the critical
border wall.
