As we approach the 100-day mark of the Biden administration, let’s imagine the unthinkable for a moment.
As hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens pour through our borders, we have a president who by his actions encourages it.
Not only has the rule of law collapsed, but the crisis has the potential to completely alter the nation’s prospects, from the sustainability of the American middle class to the sustainability of the American environment.
President Biden is breaching his fundamental responsibility to control the borders of the United States. He refuses to enforce the law in the interior, at the border, or permit cooperation between states and the federal government. He encourages illegal immigration by incentivizing it at every level. He is expanding non-immigrant visa programs and encouraging the replacement of American workers with “temporary” foreign workers.
Rather than address any element of the ongoing Biden border crisis, House Democrats spent their time moving legislation that only worsens the already grave situation at our southern border. The NO BAN Act jeopardizes our national security and public health, while the Access to Counsel Act further overwhelms our immigration courts and creates unnecessary burdens to already strained immigration authorities. Passage of both bills reveal how detached House Democrats are from properly addressing the nation’s most pressing immigration matters.
Border security and immigration reform are hanging in the balance while a new “gang” of Senate members is working behind closed doors to devise a solution. Senate Republicans have vowed that there would be no foreign aid package approved unless meaningful border and immigration policy changes were included. The next few weeks will test their resolve.
