Summary

Representative Austin Scott says it is unfair to put the “fiscal burden” on U.S. taxpayers to pay for the huge surge of illegal immigration through the southern border, when President Joe Biden has the authority to reenact the Remain in Mexico program and other policies that would curb immigration at the southern border. “Let’s remember this—if Biden had not reversed what Donald Trump had done, we would not have had the flow of illegal immigrants that we’ve had into the country in the last three years,” Rep. Scott says. Additional interviews with: Representative Bryan Steil on the immigration invasion and fentanyl crisis extending far beyond the U.S.-Mexico border. Steil says, “there’s a small community in my state with roughly 17,000 people that has 1,000 illegal immigrants who are now living there,” and Lora Ries, Border Security and Immigration Center Director at the Heritage Foundation, explains how President Joe Biden “wasted no time” enacting the left’s long-planned open border agenda. “When we're talking about over 10.2 million illegal alien encounters and known gotaways, this is clearly intentional. They’ve had plenty of time to course correct and they haven’t,” Ries says.
