Troy Nehls introduced two bills Friday, Aug. 12, intended to beef up security and speed up deportations along the U.S. border with Mexico.<\/p>\n<p>The two bills, obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller, would require the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to provide reports about migrants on the DHS terrorist watch list and prevent the department from using prosecutorial discretion to avoid deporting illegal immigrants. Law enforcement officials have encountered 66 individuals on the terror watchlist along the U.S.-Mexico border during Fiscal Year 2022, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbp.gov\/newsroom\/stats\/cbp-enforcement-statistics\">data<\/a> compiled by Customs and Border Protection (CBP).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we face a catastrophic border crisis, it\u2019s critical we do everything we can to keep our borders and keep our communities safe,\u201d Nehls said in a statement to the Daily Caller. \u201cCongress and the American public deserve to know who is attempting to cross our southern border. These individuals coming across are no longer your \u2018Average Joes.\u2019 These are known terrorists, who are attempting to sneak into our country through Mexico and are succeeding as a result of Joe Biden\u2019s disastrous border policies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read the bills here:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View NEHLS_ Prosecutorial Discretion Bill on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/587912706\/NEHLS-Prosecutorial-Discretion-Bill#from_embed\">NEHLS_ Prosecutorial Discretion Bill<\/a> by <a title=\"View Henry Rodgers&#039;s profile on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/user\/527927298\/Henry-Rodgers#from_embed\">Henry Rodgers<\/a> on Scribd<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View (DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) -- NEHLS_Terrorist Bill (1) on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/587912931\/DAILY-CALLER-OBTAINED-NEHLS-Terrorist-Bill-1#from_embed\">(DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) \u2014 NEHLS_Terrorist Bill (1)<\/a> by <a title=\"View Henry Rodgers&#039;s profile on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/user\/527927298\/Henry-Rodgers#from_embed\">Henry Rodgers<\/a> on Scribd<\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump issued an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federalregister.gov\/documents\/2017\/01\/30\/2017-02102\/enhancing-public-safety-in-the-interior-of-the-united-states\">executive order<\/a> in 2017 requiring that \u201cexecutive departments and agencies \u2026 employ all lawful means to enforce the immigration laws of the United States.\u201d That order was superseded by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ice.gov\/doclib\/about\/offices\/opla\/OPLA-immigration-enforcement_guidanceApr2022.pdf\">guidance<\/a> directing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) attorneys to consider whether illegal immigrants are threats to public safety or just entered the country illegally. <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/01\/12\/biden-border-officials-barely-implementing-remain-in-mexico-policy-after-months-fighting-it\/\"><strong>(RELATED: Biden Border Officials Barely Implementing Remain In Mexico Policy After Months Fighting It)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Nehls\u2019 prosecutorial discretion bill reinstates Trump\u2019s executive order while making several crime categories eligible for deportation.
