House Republicans on Immigration and Border Security

Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and a delegation of House Republicans held a briefing on the southern border in El Paso, Texas, to talk about border security and immigration. Earlier, the Republicans toured a detention facility and met with Customs and Border Protection officials on the rise of unaccompanied children seeking to enter the country. The minority leader criticized the Biden administration’s immigration and border policies, which he said directly resulted in the increase in illegal crossings. “This crisis is created by the presidential policies of this new administration,” he said and called on the president to visit the border himself. close
