Washington D.C. – U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (AL-03) voted in favor of legislation today that strongly condemns the Biden Administration and Border Czar Kamala Harris for their handling of the U.S. southern border. The legislation, which passed on the House Floor, calls for a recognition of the severity of the border crisis and a corresponding response from elected officials.
Rep. Rogers expressed his support for the bill, stating, “I was proud to support legislation condemning the Biden-Harris Administration’s willful negligence of the border crisis. Even with only a few months left with this administration, concern is continuously growing that the continuation of their policies will cause irreparable damage to our country. This administration has failed the American people with their zero-enforcement immigration policy, and a return to President Trump’s policies is what our country desperately needs.”
Per the Congressman’s office, since the Biden-Harris Administration took office in January 2021, there have been approximately 7.9 million illegal migrant encounters at the southern border, around 2 million known “gotaways,” and over 400 individuals with ties to ISIS who have entered the U.S., with at least 50 of them still at large.
