House Republicans Make Border Crisis Worse

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. PAYNE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to discuss how House Republicans make the border crisis worse to harm America.

Last week, they failed in their political stunt to impeach Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. There was no reason at all to do this in the first place. Then they failed to pass an appropriations bill because they did not include border security funding.

Let's be honest. Republicans are not interested in border security. Their master, Donald Trump, told them to do nothing so he could use it as an election ploy. Consequently, they are allowing more undocumented immigrants to enter this country, and they are allowing dangerous fentanyl and other drugs to threaten the lives of Americans. They do it so they can kiss the feet of their boss and fearless leader.

They are robbing resources and funding from hardworking Americans to do it. It is an example of cowardice that has no equal in American history.
