Facts:
the GOP named her Border Czar?
WASHINGTON D.C. –– Today, House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark E. Green, MD (R-TN) was joined by Homeland Republicans and other Conference members in condemning ‘Border Czar’ Vice President Kamala Harris’ refusal to secure our borders and protect Americans. Following their remarks, the House of Representatives passed, on a bipartisan vote,
H.Res. 1371, a resolution strongly condemning the Biden administration’s failure to secure America’s borders and condemning Harris specifically for her catastrophic handling of the unprecedented border crisis.
On a visit to Guatemala in 2021, her first foreign trip as vice president, she said the United States would work to investigate corruption in the country but warned migrants hoping to reach the U.S. border.
“Do not come,” she said.
Republicans have sought to blame Ms. Harris for the high numbers of migrant crossings, branding her the “border czar.”
“We are very clear, and I think most Americans are clear, that we have a broken immigration system and we need to fix it,” Ms. Harris said in March.
She recently endorsed a bipartisan border security proposal that was killed by Republican lawmakers at Mr. Trump’s urging. The deal would have closed the U.S. border with Mexico if crossings hit a fixed number and would have funded more Border Patrol agents and asylum officers.
