Republicans accuse Democratic President Joe Biden of turning the border into a sieve.
A measure that has barred access to US territory since the pandemic ended at 11:59 p.m. Washington time. In preparation, the state had mobilized “more than 24,000 agents and law enforcement officers” at the border and 4,000 soldiers.
“The Democrats have had two years to deal with the crisis they created on the border, but they still have no plan for it,” said Kevin McCarthy, Speaker of the Conservative House of Representatives.
Specifically, this text directs the Biden administration to resume construction of Donald Trump’s famous wall on the southern border of the United States.
In addition, the right to asylum is severely restricted. Migrants must cross the border legally, pay a tax, and meet many other criteria to justify the persecution they are fleeing.
This bill has almost no chance of getting passed in the Senate, which is in the hands of the Democrats. President Joe Biden has also threatened to veto it.
