Congressman Flood & House Republicans: Does Biden Even Have a Plan to Secure the Border?

November 3, 2022

WASHINGTON D.C. – Congressman Flood, alongside House Oversight Committee Republicans, are asking the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to provide the Biden Administration’s plans on how they’re going to fix the largest border crisis in our nation’s history. 

“The Biden Administration created this crisis. It avoided its duty to enforce the laws of this country to provide a safe and secure border to the American people,” the Republican lawmakers said. “This past fiscal year set records for encounters of illegal immigrants, migrant deaths, apprehensions of suspected terrorists, and seizures of fentanyl at the southern border. We cannot endure another year of the Biden Administration’s failed border policies.”

In the letter, the Oversight Committee members noted they had written DHS about the border crisis fifteen times this Congress. A full copy of the most recent letter can be found here. Congressman Flood is a member of the Committee on House Oversight and Reform as well as the Committee on Small Business.
